If you enjoy books that make you laugh aloud, this darkly humorous, touching and brilliantly original explication of a deeply pessimistic worldview might be your thing. The author attributes this prevailing feeling of self-loathing (feh is Yiddish for “yuck”) to his religious upbringing and growing up in a dysfunctional family. Yet his capacity for insight and ability to construct a new, more hopeful, narrative for his life is ultimately uplifting and inspiring, rather than depressing.
