Everything Hurts by Bill Scheft

Phil Camp has a problem. Not the fact that he wrote a parody of a self-help book (Where Can I Stow My Baggage) that the world took seriously and became an international bestseller. And not the fact that he wrote the book under a phony name, Marty Fleck, and the phony guy became a self-help guru. No, Phil's problem is he has been walking with a limp for nine months. He is in constant pain, yet there is nothing physically wrong with his body that would cause the pain. His mind, that's another story. A story which leads him to Dr. Samuel Curto. A real author who wrote a real self-help book (The Power of "Ow!") that cured thousands of people with mind-induced pain. So, what happens when the self-help fraud meets the genuine item? Does he get better? Can he get out of his own way to help himself?
BILL SCHEFT is the author of three previous novels. His second, Time Won't Let Me, was a finalist for the 2006 Thurber Prize for American Humor. A staff writer for David Letterman since 1991, he has been nominated for 16 Emmys. He has also written for The New Yorker, The New York Times, Esquire and Sports Illustrated. He lives in New York City with his wife, comedian Adrianne Tolsch, and the voices in his head.
