Who Cut The Cheese? — An A-Mazing Parody about Change (and How We Can Get Our Hands on Yours) Stilton Jarlsberg and Kenneth Bleucheese Format: Paperback, 70pp. ISBN: 9781453797754 Publisher: CreateSpace Pub. Date: October 22, 2010 Description and Reviews From The Publisher: Who Cut the Cheese? is a parable (Latin for "terrible parody") in which four characters must find a way through a maze in their hunt for "Cheese." But please keep in mind that this cheese is actually symbolic of the things that we all want out of life: success and self-confidence, a nice house, a loving marital relationship, perfect children, a loyal dog, indoor plumbing, good Chinese food, several million tax-free dollars, and red-hot sex with multiple partners. The "Maze" in this story is symbolic of the twisting, turning, confusing, mugger-filled blind alleys of Your Life. More important, since you're being compared to a rat in this book, the whole "Maze" analogy works like a charm. When you come to see the "Psychobabble on the Wall," you can discover for yourself how to deal with change and how to find the Cheese that will make your life joyous and fulfilling. Failing that, feel free to take crayons and color in all the pictures. It's fun, it's therapeutic, and it will make it impossible for you to return this book for a refund. Reviews "I'm giving this book to everyone I know and asking them to give it to everyone they know, because Stilton Jarlsberg is the greatest living writer since Shakespeare. Come to think of it, that makes him the greatest living writer period, because Shakespeare is dead as a doornail and, face it, who ever understood what the hell he was writing about anyway? Not only is this book easy to read, but it also has pictures. I like that." —Kenneth Bleucheese "Jarlsberg's book is quite witty, full of comic exaggerations and asides, as close to the original as a wayward twin." —Fred Andrews, NY Times, Nov 26, 2000 "It is parody, rich as the runniest brie." —Mike Maza, Dallas Morning News, Sept 10,2000
About the Authors Stilton Jarlsberg, M.D., has made vast professional strides, which is no small accomplishment considering he is only six inches tall. By virtue of this fact, he was awarded a scholarship to medical school so that he might actually participate in experiments alongside lab rats as a human "control." His experience with mazes and cheesy rewards speaks volumes about the expertise he brings to the book you currently hold in your hands. His previous book, The One Minute Mangler, was originally the story of a psychotic, brutally sadistic serial killer and sold fewer than a dozen copies. However, when he realized that many of the psycho killer's torture techniques could be successfully applied to the business world, he reedited the book and released it as a nonfiction management manual, at which time it became a huge international bestseller. Following this unexpected success, Stilton Jarlsberg has published an entire series of "One Minute" books, and he eventually hopes to see them turned into a series of big-budget feature films for people with exceedingly short attention spans.
