Yet failure 'doesn't mean the end of something,' Benjamin writes. 'Often, it's a springboard toward something better.' He delivers these and other words to live by with concision, wit and a stand-up's sense of timing." --Book Page, "His craft, and what makes him such an inspired and singular voice, is to make it look easy... That it's decidedly not that easy is part of the gag; writing this funny requires immense talent." -- AV Club "Benjamin's stories run the gamut from personal to professional and will leave you laughing out loud and embracing your own failures." -- HelloGiggles "Benjamin's unique take on the classic 'fail until you succeed' self-help industry looks to be as self-deprecating and absurd as his best work." --Brightest Young Things "Irreverent, edgy and hilarious...recommend to all who need a respite from stress and a good laugh." -- Booklist "Benjamin is up-front and funny as he recounts his unsuccessful launch of a kids' late-night TV talk show (tentative title: 'Midnight Pajama Jam') and documents his parental shortcomings (bad idea: babysitting an infant in a video arcade).

Synopsis
Most people would consider H. Jon Benjamin a comedy show business success. But he'd like to remind everyone that as great as success can be, failure is also an option. And maybe the best option. In this book, he tells stories from his own life, from his early days ('wherein I'm unable to deliver a sizzling fajita') to family ('wherein a trip to P.F. Chang's fractures a family') to career ('how I failed to sell a pilot'). As Jon himself says, breaking down one's natural ability to succeed is not an easy task, but also not an insurmountable one., H. Jon Benjamin - the lead voice behind Archer and Bob's Burgers - helps us all feel a little better about our own failures by sharing his own in a hilarious memoir-ish chronicle of failure., "Writing this funny requires immense talent." -- AV Club H. Jon Benjamin--the lead voice behind Archer and Bob's Burgers --helps us all feel a little better about our own failures by sharing his own in a hilarious memoir-ish chronicle of failure. Most people would consider H. Jon Benjamin a comedy show business success. But he'd like to remind everyone that as great as success can be, failure is also an option. And maybe the best option. In this book, he tells stories from his own life, from his early days ("wherein I'm unable to deliver a sizzling fajita") to his romantic life ("how I failed to quantify a threesome") to family ("wherein a trip to P.F. Chang's fractures a family") to career ("how I failed at launching a kid's show"). As Jon himself says, breaking down one's natural ability to succeed is not an easy task, but also not an insurmountable one. Society as we know it is, sadly, failure averse. But more acceptance of failure, as Jon sees it, will go a long way to making this world a different place . . . a kinder, gentler place, where gardens are overgrown and most people stay home with their pets. A vision of failure, but also a vision of freedom. With stories, examples of artistic and literary failure, and a powerful can't-do attitude, Failure Is an Option is the book the world doesn't need right now but will get regardless.

    Thank you so much for offering this art book. Your price was fabulous on it. I had no communication, but you are no doubt a kind person. You are also a professional person, and your attention to detail really helped me in making my purchase decision. I'm adding you to my favorite seller list, and I always do shop with this list first. And also, I'd like to thank you for the lovely packaging, and the extremely fast shipping. The book was exactly as you described it. Happy New Year, if I can say.

    I had a problem after placing my order. I contacted the seller who responded within an hour and resolved the issue with no hassle. This book was a fair price and received today. I failed to notice, but the description did indicate it was missing the dust jacket. I highly recommend this seller.
