From couch life to life coach-Leon Black is back in THE BOOK OF LEON (Gallery Books; On Sale October 10, 2017; Hardcover $25). Playing hooky from Larry, HBO, and Curb Your Enthusiasm, the most-ruckus-bringingest-human ever is here to fix your life with a philosophical helpfulness you'd have sworn you never needed.
Aristotle. Gandhi. Lao Tzu. Dr. Ruth.
Amateurs.
For centuries bespeckled dorks have pored over the scrolls of the ancients, read tea leaves, and looked to the stars for philosophy, wisdom, and advice. While some people have probably offered good advice, and others offer bad advice, Leon is here to offer his brand of good-bad advice. These are the musings of a master genius spitting out the secrets of the universe-to help you become just like him.
Be forewarned: in opening this tome and Leon's mind, you need to be prepared for straight talk. The kind of unfiltered blunt straight talk that pounds on your door, invites itself in, makes itself at home, helps itself to your food, security pass code, your expensive organic beet juice, and finally makes itself comfortable on that twin bed in your guest room. All the while you think you're helping it-but really it's helping you help yourself!
Because that's how this book doozit.
Leon Black, he ain't wrong...he just ain't right.
THE BOOK OF LEON is the encyclopedic wisdom of Leon Black, the unofficial sidekick to Larry David and a foolish force to be reckoned with. He has advice on skin care, divorce (how to get there without being a dirty cheater), wife insurance, getting money for your startup, when to wash your hands, how to fix government debt (print more money!), how to be a high-functioning alcoholic, and which Uber to order depending on how drunk you are.
Leon Black is the modern day Ruckus-Damus, the Bringer of Ruckus, a word artist, a spitter of Leonisms, a possessor of BBIF, and the POHTA.
