Welcome back to your favorite politically incorrect town, Darbyshire! If you haven’t done so already, consider going back and reading the first book before starting this one, as many of the characters from “Darbyshire: Welcome to the Jungle” reappear in “Darbyshire: It’s Not Your Fault”. This edition introduces ten new characters within the Darbyshire universe and really ramps up the nonsense that you either fondly, or not so fondly, remember from the inaugural book.

Unsurprisingly, many of the stories take deep dives into a wide variety of “interesting” cultural issues of our current society. With an overdose of hyperbolic language, as well as some tasteless jokes, the tales herein take a few metaphorical half court shots to satirically illustrate the fact that life isn’t always about rainbows, butterflies, and selfies.

Remember, Darbyshire is a series of meme-grade, literary lampoons. Like a funhouse mirror, the fables warp the soberingly depressing reality of the modern world into something so exceptionally gay, even stoic, card-carrying members of the global lumberjack community won’t possess the capacity to retard their ensuing titillation—all but guaranteeing what seasoned thought leaders describe as their industry’s ultimate nightmare scenario: the widespread abandonment of faggots in forests everywhere.

This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places, and incidents either are products of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual events, locales, songs, entities, or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental.
