Call Me Zach Hively Because That Is My Name - essays PRESALE

Few challenges are greater than navigating the world as a so-called adult. Yet Zach Hively does his best to evade them all. The perils of rental housing? Finding friendship as a hermit who rather dislikes people? Bears? There’s nothing he can’t talk his way through—or out of—in these short essays.

Call Me Zach Hively Because That Is My Name assembles, if not the best, at least the bulk of the long-running columnist and essayist, once called a millennial Dave Barry, in book form for the first time.

Praise for Zach Hively:

“Whether he’s being droll, laugh-out-loud funny, sarcastic, or serious, Hively’s observations are always a joy to read.”
— Four Corners Free Press

“Beautiful writing … a flawless full-length read each time, with the drollery pitched just right.”

— Top of the Rockies, Society of Professional Journalists

“Zach Hively is the greatest American author of our times, or at least a really good one. He makes us laugh, he makes us cry, he mostly makes us laugh though. In fact, he’s never made us cry.”

— Abiquiú News
