Title: “The Bedwetter: Stories of Courage, Redemption, and Pee”
Author: Sarah Silverman
Rank: 67
Blurb: “When I was asked to provide text for an author page, I decided to approach it in a scholarly manner, because that’s what authors do. I looked to other author pages for inspiration, and I learned so much. For example, while Hemingway and Dostoevsky do not have their own author pages on Amazon.com, Paris Hilton does. And so does former teenage porn star and multi-tasking fellatrix, Traci Lords. Hemingway and Dostoevsky might be wondering, quite literally, ‘Whom do I have to blow to get my own author page?’ If someone had a cruel sense of humor, they might respond to Hemingway, ‘How about your head off? Oh wait — you already DID that!’ But such a remark would be in bad taste, and as a serious author, I’m above all that.”
Review: “It’s the e-mails between her and her editor that show the truth of the old adage that comedy is tragedy plus time.”

Footnote: It’s just nice to see something in the Amazon Top 100 that isn’t a cookbook, a wingnut rant, a Twilight sequel, or Sookie Stackhouse.
