This is not a book that will tell you everything happens for a reason, or that the universe has a plan for you. It starts from a blunter premise: we are decaying biological organisms, briefly conscious of the fact, and most of what passes for wisdom is an elaborate way of not looking at that directly.
Across a collection of essays, aphorisms, and one short story, Laugh takes aim at pretense, status, spirituality, and the self-help industry's promise of a fix — not to leave you in despair, but to offer something sturdier than comfort: the kind of laughter that comes from seeing clearly and staying anyway.
