Assume the worst : the graduation speech you'll never hear / Carl Hiaasen ; illustrated by Roz Chast.
Here it is the ultimate hilarious, cynical, but absolutely realistic view of a college graduate's future. And what he or she can or can't do about it. This is Carl Hiaasen's attempt to prepare young men and women for their future. And who better to warn them about their precarious paths forward than Carl Hiaasen? The answer, after reading this book, is: nobody. This is also a good gift for anyone starting a job, getting married or recently released from prison. Because it is not just funny - It is, in its own Hiaasen way, extremely wise and even hopeful.
