Magical

Bookslut's Michael Schaub says (and it's hard to disagree with him) that The War Against Toenail Fungus is "the most magical book ever written in any language." The first paragraph:

You might think that since we were able to put a man on the moon, we would have learned how to cure toenail fungus a long time ago. Really? The fact is that when the Apollo astronauts landed on the moon in 1969 — and for several decades thereafter — we had only cumbersome and largely ineffective therapies for this disgustingly earthy problem.
