"“A comic masterpiece.” —Andy Borowitz, New York Times-bestselling author of Profiles in Ignorance “I savored every word of Nathaniel Stein’s hilarious, expertly crafted, giddily uncompromising debut novel. The Threat is full of pathos—loneliness, alienation, existential horror. But Stein is such a deft comedic stylist that all I experienced while reading it was joy. It's a fantastic book and I hope he writes a million more.” —Simon Rich, Thurber Prize-winning author of New Teeth ""Nathaniel Stein has written a comic novel unlike anything that we have on hand recently: a small-scale exquisitist portrait of an improbable existence that has elements of both Kafka and Bruce Jay Friedman, and manages to be both appealingly absurd and strangely touching. A genuinely original book."" —Adam Gopnik, New York Times-bestselling author of Paris to the Moon"
