A side note for readers still on-the-fence about this book: Look up Ivan Albright and pull up images of his paintings. I feel like is artwork pretty efficiently encapsulates the tone of this book (plus he's one of my favorite artists of all time).

I have a task for you.
I want you to go town to your local bookstore and purchase a copy of “Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke.” I have wired the essential funds to your bank account. Then you are going to sit in your chair at home and open the book. Do not get out of the chair until you have finished the entire little nasty thing in it’s entirety. You will probably become more uncomfortable the further you read, but I know you will stick it out for me. There will be consequences if you do not do this.
I love you more than anything.
