LINT by Steve Aylett

Lint is a kookie, satirical fake biography of an imaginary sci-fi/pulp author named Jeff (or maybe Jack) Lint.. The book traces his life and writings, satirizing a number of well-known writers from the late 20th Century like Hunter S. Thompson, Philip K. Dick and Ken Kesey.  In true Aylett style, some of the most hilarious parts are aphorisms and non-sequiturs, book titles, pseudo-quotes and general silliness peppered generously throughout the book. It's tremendously entertaining and holds its own as a highly absurd dig at contemporary writers and writing. You'll get pages of quotable absurdities out of it. As one reviewer said, "it's hard to slog through a book where every sentence has a punchline but it's worth it in the end."  Very enjoyable.
