The 10-Items-or-Less Apocalypse is what happens when a stand-up comic raids a think tank and leaves behind only cardboard forts, goat landlords, and a gingerbread HOA lawsuit. This collection of essays is a high-speed collision between cultural critique and comedic chaos—where a shopping cart becomes a philosophical monument, a mouse stages a corporate coup, and a man who uses the very wrong but very right hair gel.
Available in hardcover, paperback, and Kindle!

Brian Gerard (Lewandowski) writes books critics call “aggressively adequate”—better than “aggressively terrible” but somehow more concerning. He once traded a MetroCard for a pitchfork on a subway platform and now uses it exclusively for dramatic pointing. He lives on a farm outside Charlottesville, Virginia with three disappointed potted plants, a judgmental pig named Trouble McFussbucket, and a wife who smiles politely at his life choices.
His first manuscript was composed entirely of punctuation marks and confused sketches. He’s since published “Not Bukowski” (poems that don’t rhyme) and “Slop and Swell from a Festering Mind” (essays so concerning that bookstores check on his wellbeing). He once spent three hours photographing a rare bird that turned out to be a plastic bag, and he’s the only person banned from church bake sales for “weaponized brownies.” Inheriting absurdism from Vonnegut and Adams, sprawling narratives from Irving, and weaponized failure from Moore, he writes about conflicted everymen struggling through supernatural chaos. He remains unconvinced that birds aren’t surveillance drones.
