Kurt Clausen has been fired from several newspapers already. He always gets into trouble—always. It isn't that Kurt can't write; quite the contrary. It's just that much of what gets into newspapers is stupid, and Kurt can't keep his mouth shut about it. Begin to Exit Here, John Welter's first novel, offers us a comic look at the wayward press from the inside. Now in its twentieth year, this novel remains as timely as ever.
