Malte Niebelschuetz’s Satirical Yet Sympathetic Spin On the Self-Help Book Genre Soon to Exhibit at Printers Row Lit Fest 2024
The Printers Row Lit Fest, one of America’s largest outdoor book exhibits, features work across numerous categories, including comedy. For Malte Niebelschueltz, it’s an opportunity to introduce his first book, "The Art of Self-Destruction." The book is not meant to make fun of the self-help genre but instead meets readers where they are on their journey. It offers a cheeky, satirical take on the self-help book formula while still looking out for its readers in its own way.
“A satirical take on self-help while also trying to be of real help to readers.”
At the Printers Row Lit Fest 2024, people walking the streets of Chicago will get a chance to also sit down and explore the works of authors writing for a number of genres. But for entrepreneur and author Malte Niebelschuetz, it’s an opportunity to reach both those readers struggling to change their lives and those who are just looking for a good laugh.
The title of his book is The Art of Self Destruction: The Human Guide to Becoming the Victim You Never Were. Right on the cover, it presents itself as an unabashed satire of the self-help book formula.
The Art of Self Destruction is a book that pulls no punches in its criticism of typical self-help advice in books with witty, sarcastic inversions of them. Examples include grim one-liners such as “Why seize the day when you can let it slip through your fingers?” and the benefits of embracing fear for good, and old-fashioned small-mindedness.
Yet, at the same time, the book is actually not as cynical as it sounds. At the end of the day, Malte hopes his book is essentially presenting a more sympathetic, helpful guide to people who read self-help books in search of ideas for improving their lives. He knows his intended audience well because he, too, had done the same, and much of the book’s content came about as he sought counseling and self-help literature during his life’s difficult moments.
Those checking out the 2024 Printers Row Lit Fest can find The Art of Self Destruction: The Human Guide to Becoming the Victim You Never Were displayed at the self-publishing and book marketing company ReadersMagnet’s exhibit. The event will still be at its historic location at Printers Row Park, 620 South Dearborn Street, Chicago, IL, on September 7-8, 2024. They can also find copies online right on Amazon.
