Jesse Eisenberg reads from 'Bream Gives Me Hiccups'

Jesse Eisenberg pops into his UK publishers to read an extract from his whip-smart and very funny fiction debut, 'Bream Gives Me Hiccups'.

Taking its title from a group of stories that begin the book, 'Bream Gives Me Hiccups' moves from contemporary L.A. to the dormrooms of an American college to ancient Pompeii, throwing the reader into a universe of social misfits, reimagined scenes from history, and ridiculous overreactions.

United by Eisenberg's gift for humour and character, and grouped into chapters that each open with an illustration by award-winning cartoonist Jean Jullien, the witty pieces collected in 'Bream Gives Me Hiccups' explore what it means to navigate the modern world, and mark the arrival of a fantastically funny, self-ironic, witty and original voice.

Jesse Eisenberg is the of Academy Award-nominated actor and star of 'The Social Network' . Known for his iconic film roles but also for his regular pieces in the New Yorker and his two critically acclaimed plays, Eisenberg is an emerging voice in fiction.
