Summary

Best-selling novelist and award-winning film director Robert H. Lieberman takes listeners on a hilarious, non-stop ride as they follow the mad travails of Neil Nudelman, down-and-out in Goobersville, New York.

Desperate to support his wife and two children, Nudelman tries his hand at countless jobs, palming himself off as a carpenter, ghost writer for a wealthy businessman, and even attempts selling himself to the Chinese. At war with his bizarre neighbors the Szorsky’s, Nudelman contemplates justifiable homicide.

Now in its fourth edition, the laughs are as fast and funny as ever, the pathos heart-breaking.
