Synopsis
In this scathing and darkly humorous diatribe, comedian and actor Denis Leary offer his sardonic take what's wrong with America. Leary takes no prisoners, taking down everything from the Catholic Church, to the culture of celebrity, to why he hates cats. Leary is known for his acerbic wit, and he unloads plenty of his trademark vitriol in WHY WE SUCK. Fans of Leary's stand-up will likely delight in this bitingly funny commentary on American culture.

A FEW REVIEWS:

“Denis Leary snarls as naturally as most actors smile,” says one critic of the writer and comic. In Why We Suck, Leary snarls to brilliant effect. With his patented highspeed ranting and killer comic instinct, Denis Leary has become a beloved antihero whose bracing invective and outrageous riffs have earned him a huge following.

  1. "Denis Leary snarls as naturally as most actors smile," says one critic of the writer and comic. In Why We Suck, Leary snarls to brilliant effect. With his patented highspeed ranting and killer comic instinct, Denis Leary has become a beloved antihero whose bracing invective and outrageous riffs have earned him a huge following.

  2. Always outspoken (and so-called “Dr.”), Denis Leary returns with this hilarious look at sucking; why we suck, how not to suck and how to help others who suck become suck free. Pulling no punches, Leary storms his way through everything from skinny jeans being for skinny people to vegetarians, and never fails to make listeners laugh out loud. Reading in his trademark self-deprecating and hard-nosed manner, Leary plows through his book at such a strong and commanding speed that listeners will think his well-polished rants are off-the-cuff. Leary is almost performing stand-up; his tone is so unrelenting and unabashed that listeners will beg for more.

  3. Irreverent, no-nonsense actor/comedian Leary opines here on topics including politics, cultural icons, skinny jeans, and Irish Catholic family values. Narrating the book himself, Leary provides the right amounts of emphasis, indignation, and outrage at all the things he feels make people suck. The language is profane, vulgar, and raunchy in many-if not most-places, so listeners should be warned. Those not easily offended, however, will love this book, winner of Publishers Weekly's Listen Up Award.

Cyber ~ Space ~ Reviews:

  • Amazingly funny …………..As always Denis is fantastic! I listened to this each day during my commute, and had to force myself to turn it off and go into work.

  • Too bad money can't buy a sense of humor, …………..First off, this book is a riot from page one. I don't write reviews because I think everyone else out there does it better, but after reading the one star reviews on this book I had to chime in. Leary has a mean and angry style to his comedy. If you're easily offended, every other paragraph will get under your skin. This would not be the book for you. This would be a great book for anyone that does have a sense of humor and that can laugh at themselve’s without being offended.

    The one star reviews annoy me. I like hard rock and to me, those reviews come off as being the same as if I wrote a one star review of the latest blue grass album because it's not what I like. It would be a waste of my time and the reader's time.

    In the Prologue, Leary comes out saying that this is a comedy book. It is a parody, satire and poking fun. His exaggerated take on life. That's what all comedians do and Leary does it well. He also points out that there are endless things you can buy in America - but a sense of humor isn't one of them. Well put.

  • Refreshingly Honest Rant on Modern Life, …………..received "Why We Suck" as a gift on the same day that shoppers killed a man trampling him while lined up for "Holiday Shopping" at Walmart and realized this is WHY WE SUCK.
    Happily, the book is funny and fun to read.
    Sadly, it is a true commentary about our lives.
    From CelebuTards to Dr Full to Mr Leary's idea of justice for Michael Vick, the book is astounding in it's genuine insights into WHY WE TRULY SUCK. Mr. Leary is a man with his eyes open and a mind that has not been brainwashed by the spin-doctors and Dr Fulls of this world.
