'What a marvellous book this is . . . de Botton dissects what [Proust] had to say about friendship, reading, looking carefully, paying attention taking your time, being alive and adds his own delicious commentary. The result is an intoxicating as it is wise, amusing as well as stimulating, and presented in so fresh a fashion as to be unique . . . I could not stop, and now much start all over again.' Brian Masters, " Mail on Sunday"
'De Botton not only has a complete understanding of Proust's life . . . but what is particularly charming about this small, readable book is its tongue-in-cheek benignity, its lightly held erudition and its generous way of lending itself to what is not only the greatest book of the century but also the darkest and the most eccentric' Edmund White, " Observer"
'It contains more human interest and play of fancy than most fiction . . . de Botton, in emphasizing Proust's healing, advisory aspects, does us the service of rereading him on our behalf, providing of that vast sacred lake a sweet and lucid distillation.' John Updike, "New Yorker "
'De Botton's little book is so charming, amusing and sensible that it may even itself change your life.' Allan Massie, "Daily Telegraph"
'This engaging book is one of the most entertaining pieces of literary criticism I have read in a long while.' "Sunday Telegraph"
'A very enjoyable book' Sebastian Faulks

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
One of the most distinctive and funny politicians, Senator John Kennedy (the one from Louisiana)--hailed by Politico as "America's most quotable Senator"--offers his perceptive (and hilarious) takes on the ridiculousness of political life in this scathingly witty takedown of Washington and its elite denizens.
How to Test Negative for Stupid offers the Senator's tongue-in-cheek guidebook through Washington, punctuated by his thoughts on various issues and humorous stories about life from Louisiana politics and inside the Senate.
From the mind--and mouth--of "America's Most Quotable Senator"
"Always be yourself . . . unless you suck.""I say this gently: This is why the aliens won't talk to us.""If you trust government, you obviously failed history class.""I believe that our country was founded by geniuses, but it's being run by idiots.""Always follow your heart . . . but take your brain with you.""I'm not going to Bubble Wrap it: The water in Washington, D.C., won't clear up until you get the pigs out of the creek.""I have the right to remain silent but not the ability.""Common sense is illegal in Washington, D.C., I know. I've seen it firsthand.""I believe that we are going to have to get some new conspiracy theories. All the old ones turned out to be true."
