Publisher's summary

In "Center of the Universe", God struggles to balance the demands of his career with the needs of his long-term girlfriend. In "Magical Mr. Goat", a young girl's imaginary friend yearns to become more than friends. In "Unprotected", an unused prophylactic recalls his years spent trapped inside a teen boy's wallet. The stories in Simon Rich's new audiobook are bizarre, funny, and yet...relatable. Rich explores love's many complications--losing it, finding it, breaking it, and making it--and turns the ordinary into the absurd. With razor-sharp humor, and just in time for Valentine's Day, Rich takes listeners for an exhilarating, hilarious ride on the rollercoaster of love.

Odd, insightful, often dark and always hilarious!!

Man seeking Woman tells 30 short stories about the unloved, unsure and unusual. Jarring prose and simple imagery will make sure you wont quickly forget them.
A must read for any human being who has ever experienced the company of another.

This book will take you in some strange directions but is really fun the whole way. Insightful too.

Doesn't take much

The book is very creative, but reading/hearing this book gives you the idea that life can be one be joke if u want to look at it that way. There is nothing outlandish fun in this book, but the absurdity/scenarios that are in this book is what makes it great.

Excellent fun!

Where does The Last Girlfriend on Earth rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It's in the top

What did you like best about this story?

A change of pace from the normal historical fiction I like to read.

Have you listened to any of Simon Rich’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Heard him on Savage podcast and thought it was an interesting premise for a book

Any additional comments?

Lots of fun and I love when the author reads the book, it adds so much more personality to the book. Great book and great reader/author!!

Hilarious absurd stories you can relate to.

My coworker keeps wondering why I'm walking around laughing so much.

Because of this book!

Hilarious

An awkwardly funny story that plays like a sketch tv show.
I’ve replayed this multiple times while stuck in traffic.

Hysterical; incredibly clever

I loved every story and can’t wait to see the play on Broadway - with John Mulaney!

Love his stories but so misogynistic

Can’t get through half the stories without changing the chapter. The objects have more personality than the women he writes
