Zombie spaceship wasteland
Book • 2011
Zombie Spaceship Wasteland is an inventive account of the evolution of Patton Oswalt's wildly insightful worldview, blending memoir with uproarious humor.
The book covers topics from his suburban nerd childhood and teen summers working in a movie theater to his early years in stand-up comedy.
Oswalt posits that young creative minds gravitate toward one of three storylines: zombies, spaceships, or wastelands, and he explores how these themes shape personal and cultural narratives.
The collection includes both comedic essays and graphic elements, offering a look into Oswalt's psyche and his take on society's excesses and pop culture.
