"Part long-form punk 'zine, part philosophical stand-up, Brian M. Clark's Drunk Jerk is a huge collection of his essays, travelogues, artwork, and interviews he conducted throughout his youth. If you enjoy pointing and laughing (or even shaking your fist) at the comedy of errors that much of the world trips itself into, this should be a fun read."

"Irreverent, hilarious, and sometimes snarky—but always entertaining—Brian M. Clark's Drunk Jerk pulls no punches. Pairs well with a fine wine or pint of rotgut."
      – Nick Plumber
         Author of Whiskeyboat

"A fascinating look into one of the brightest minds of Generation Booze. Drunk Jerk is not a confessional; it's an anti-confession. Clark's droll collection of essays, art, and articles not only refuses to offer apologies and regrets; it refreshingly revels in the age-old act of putting alcohol where it belongs – your bloodstream."
      – Frank Kelly Rich
         Author of The Modern Drunkard

"Drunk Jerk is a high-octane slalom into Brian M. Clark's lurching swerve into self-aware cynicism, misguided madness, and objective levity. On the twin skis of contempt and curiosity, he ricochets the reader through a gauntlet of twisted ventures, liquor-soaked forays, and jagged catapults over the cliff of reason into the shifting unknown. Clark's command of composition and satire allow the reader to sit shotgun as he veers his way through hapless academia, international misadventure, and wholesale misanthropy. If you are looking for motivation to stop testing life's 'what-ifs' and step into the crosswind, this book is for you."

"With his new book, Drunk Jerk, Brian M. Clark has collected his brilliant insights, witty, cynical broadsides, articles, and interviews. It contains his views on everything from Beethoven ("Beethoven's Blue Balls"), Modern Art ("Why Modern Art Is Complete and Total Bullshit"), as well as our beloved pets ("Fuck You and Your Stupid, Stupid Cat"). ...
      Drunk Jerk is a great book to read straight through or, additionally, perfect reading material for those quiet commode moments that we all enjoy. Personally, my copy is sitting on my living room coffee table, making it a delight to pick up, read a few articles, put down, and then continually pick up again and again. It's also great for the in-laws or other unwanted house guests; once they start reading it, they can't stop, and you aren't forced to engage in ridiculously stupid fucking banter that we all despise. Get this book for the entertainment value and for shutting up unwanted visitors; it works every time."

"Drunk Jerk is an apt title for a book that serves as an appraisal of author Brian M. Clark's former self. It's an over-the-shoulder, sidelong glance at a young adulthood spent in thrall of bacchanalia, revelry, bitter piss-takings, and righteous indignations; a comedy of angst and eloquence that throbs and heaves in lockstep to a thrashing punk-esque tumult.
      As the biting commentaries and sneering editorials in Drunk Jerk redouble, they are deftly punctuated by evocative black-and-white photographs. Reading like 'The Wit and Wisdom of a Hangman's Son,' Clark's viewpoint begins with bleak deadpan as a baseline, and evolves exponentially thereafter, recalling bygone capriciousness and conviviality; at once endearing him to the reader while trying, desperately it seems, to alienate them."
