"...this isn't the usual tearjerker cancer story. It is a gleefully offensive cancer story. It is the Blazing Saddles of cancer stories." --New York Journal of Books

Synopsis
When advertising legend Jim Riswold is stricken with leukemia and prostate cancer, he quits the business that made him famous to become a "fake artist," creating a controversial body of work with a controversial cast of characters, from Hitler to Mao to Kim Jong-Il. It was a decision that would save his life. Advertising legend Jim Riswold is a Big F****** Deal. Ask him, he'll tell you. But when Riswold is stricken with leukemia and prostate cancer (a two-fer ), the freewheeling adman quits making commercials, and starts making art. But not just any art--Hitler art. Mussolini art. Stalin-in-a-bathtub art. This is not a sad cancer story. This is a molotov cocktail of raunch and heart and 18-gauge biopsy guns. This is a taboo-busting laugh riot, a raspberry blown straight at dying-guy preciousness and monsters of all kinds--cancer and world-historical bad guys included. Be warned--contents of this book include: One profanity-spiked TEDx talk. Several very public, full-frontal dick picks. Two adorable children. Something called "Interferon Family Fun Night." Jim Riswold leading a crowd of people in a rousing rendition of "Happy Birthday" to his oncologist. Relentlessly funny, and scorchingly subversive, this is a bruised and bruising memoir--it is also tubed, scarred, stapled, and irradiated. But here's the secret: Jim Riswold, enfant terrible, the man Charles Barkley once called "a role model for morons," is kind of a sweetheart. The wise-guy posturing is just a cover for his pulpy heart. Another secret: This book isn't about Hitler. It's about the beautiful, stupid, gross, foolish, and fantastic things we're willing to do for love and family and not-dying. It's about a guy who, with due respect to Lou Gehrig, considers himself the luckiest man on the face of the earth. Really, Jim Riswold owes cancer a thank-you. Thanks to cancer, his tombstone will no longer read: Here Lies That Guy Who Did That "Bo Knows" Commercial. Now, it will say Here Lies the Guy Who Put Cancer in Its Place--and Mussolini on a Tricycle., In Hitler Saved My Life, advertising legend Jim Riswold brilliantly combines incisive and funny essays with gorgeous and hilarious visuals to chronicle his battle with cancer and details how a post-diagnosis career transformation into a 'fake artist' helped stave off death. And that fake art, inhabited by tyrants like Mao, Hitler and Mussolini, has provoked a great deal of controversy. But as one critic noted, Riswold's work 'teaches us how to deal with monsters, be it a Hitler or a deadly disease.'

    I can only say that this was by far one of the best buying experiences on eBay that I have had in years! The quality of the item (DVD set and guidebook) was exactly as listed by the seller. The condition was just as great, and the value that I got for the amount I paid was absolutely worth it! The packing of the items was impeccable and the delivery fast! What else could you ask for? Buy from this seller and support a great cause, please! Thank you!!!
