Richard Crasta is the author of twelve books and the father of three sons. He was born and grew up in India and moved to America to become a writer. His first novel, "The Revised Kama Sutra," was received with critical acclaim, described as "very funny" by Kurt Vonnegut, and published in 10 countries and in 7 languages.
Richard's books include fiction, nonfiction, essays, autobiography, humor, and satire, and have been described as "exuberant," "courageous," "hilarious," and "going where no Indian writer has gone before."
His 12 books include "Impressing the Whites," "The Killing of an Author," and the subversive anthology of humor, "I Will Not Go the F**k to Sleep" (a non-parental version with more political humor has been published under the title "The Empire Bites Back"); he also edited and added essays to his father's memoir, "Eaten by the Japanese: The Memoir of an Unknown Indian Prisoner of War." His motives for writing include a passion for justice and free expression and a love of laughter.
Richard has traveled widely in North America, Asia, and Europe, and though technically a New York resident, spends most of his time in Asia working on seven books in progress. His likes include a wide range of music, movies, theater, and travel.

This highly varied humor collection, formerly a No. 2 humor bestseller, begins with an imaginary child's humorous response to "Go the F**k to Sleep" (a 2011 megaseller), asking:
--What if a child, asked to go the f**k to sleep by its father, could respond in adult language?
--What does a Daddy do if the new kitten and the Baby are at war?
--Imagine 100 Indian super-yogis exported to the USA to help balance the Indian budget.
--A Nuclear Weapons Fire Sale.
--What does an immigrant do with a rotten chicken from the supermarket?
--What's the real story of Adam and Eve getting kicked out of Paradise? etc. etc.
This is an anytime book for adults who refuse to grow up or to go to sleep in this unreal and wacky world of jet-setting yogis, retired nukes, and presidents named Bush.
This wide-ranging anthology of humor touches on daddies and kids, nukes and wackos, politicians and promises, and cats and Daddies. If you like occasionally silly, occasionally witty nonconformist humor, and are non-pc and NON-UPTIGHT, and are weilling to give humorists their license to totally change the subject, you will probably love this book.
