Life of a Silicon Valley Hipster: A parody of all things Silicon Valley

Overview

This is a tale of Theo, a fictional Silicon Valley hipster, who is on a quest to make the world a better place! His epic journey begins on his way back from Burning Man, as it often does. The crisp San Francisco morning breeze mingled with a bouquet of pot and urine stench, which has been a catalyst for many innovators, did not let Theo down. With all the confidence of a hipster who wears cropped pants and shoes with no socks, he sets out to build a disruptive startup. This book proudly chronicles the rise and fall, the pitches and pivots, the failures, yet somehow successes, of that awesome venture.

Reviews

This is a hilarious parody of life in Silicon Valley. Every page consists of a catchy verse (that rhymes!) complemented by playful graphics. There are many nuggets of truth so artfully depicted that we laughed with every page turn. Under the pretense of being a children's book, the author is able to weave a compelling, innocent and satirical take on Silicon Valley life, and highlight how humorous it can be through that lens. This would be a great gift for the geek inside you or a humor-loving friend.
