This volume describes the tasks that bachelors must perform to maintain a household, including tricking other people into cleaning for them, turning the cat into a sweeper, and others.
From P. J. O'Rourke comes a hilarious look at domestic life. Or, as P.J. puts it, "This is a book about cooking, cleaning, and housekeeping for people who don't know how to do any of those things and aren't about to learn". P.J. offers useful sections on cleaning (or how to best avoid doing it: "You can keep the dining room clean by eating in the kitchen"), not to mention tricking your guests into cooking and cleaning for you. And in sections designed to make Martha Stewart retreat in horror, he offers hints on home decorating ("Start with an empty room and take a big drink. Drink a bunch more".), yard care ("You can rake the leaves into a pile and burn them or you can just bum them. Which is easier?"), and other miscellany.
This is an essential guide to the practical business of living in the modern world and proves, as O'Rourke says, that "Camus had it all wrong about the myth of Sisyphus -- it's not symbolic of life, just housekeeping".
