Критика

B.J. blew me away. He just keeps kicking short fiction in the rear, making it run ahead clutching its ass, and then he runs up and kicks it some more, and the result is one of the most aggressively, insanely awesome debuts in a while (Gary Shteyngart, author of Super Sad True Love Story)

Everyone knew that B.J. Novak was smart and sexy, but funny, too!? Wow, screw that guy. I haven't laughed at words this hard since I read (Joshua Ferris author of The Unnamed and Then We Came to the End)

ONE MORE THING is a funny and inventive debut collection, infused with a deadpan absurdist wit reminiscent of Woody Allen and Ian Frazier. B.J. Novak's stories are sly and playful, but they can pack a real emotional wallop (Tom Perrotta, author of Nine Inches)

Dark and hilarious, like the fudge Grandma used to make during her 'special' period. Deliciously funny! (Jack Handey, author of Deep Thoughts and The Stench of Honolulu)

A funny writer with a great ear, but also a genuine storyteller with an observant eye and finely tuned emotional radar (Michiko Kakutani New York Times
