We Learn Nothing

In his new collection of essays, We Learn Nothing, satirical cartoonist Tim Kreider turns his funny, brutally honest eye to the dark truths of the human condition. He asks big questions about loss and love and the fleeting nature of life: How do you react when someone you’ve known for years unexpectedly changes genders? What if you survive a brush with death and it doesn’t change you? These are the conversations you have only with best friends or total strangers, late at night over drinks, near closing time. With a perfect combination of humor and pathos, these essays leave us with newfound wisdom and a unique prism through which to examine our own chaotic journeys through life.
