About the Book

The Stench of Honolulu is Jack Handey's first full length narrative. It will take the tried-and-true form of his short, surrealistic bursts but connecting all of them into a ridiculous adventure tale with laugh-out-loud funny twists and characters. The reliably unreliable narrator and his friend, Don--who might be familiar to fans of "Deep Thoughts"--go on a quest for the Golden Monkey that takes them into the mysterious and stinky foreign land of Honolulu. There, they meet with untold dangers, strange natives, and the ruins of ancient civilizations, or as our narrator says: "the ruins were impressive. But like so many civilizations, they forgot the rule that might have saved them: don't let vines grow all over you."

Review :
"A clever, absurd, and fantastical adventure that could only have sprung from the hilarious-slash-lunatic mind of Jack Handey." -- "Jimmy Fallon, New York Times bestselling author " "I recently humiliated myself in the prestigious Pump Room restaurant by laughing out loud, to the point of tears, while reading The Stench of Honolulu. Jack Handey is the funniest writer in America. And his funny is a very particular, sublime, kind of funny--it builds and builds and is related to his supreme control of language. It is witty, minimal, subversive, and also strangely sweet. Read this book, and you will feel better, period." -- "George Saunders, New York Times bestselling author" "Not surprisingly, Emmy winner Handey, famed for his New Yorker humor and offbeat philosophizing in his 'Deep Thoughts' series, has turned out a first novel that goes for the funny bone." -- "Library Journal" "This book is a joy. I laughed out loud on every page. Jack Handey is hilarious, brilliant, and original--a law unto himself." -- "Ian Frazier, New York Times bestselling author"
