“They climbed and climbed and pushed and shoved until finally it was just Our Hero, Just Plain Joe out in the lead. Our Hero, Just Plain Joe reached the top in a record breaking time of four days, twenty-three hours and thirty-four minutes.”
— The ‘tis Bottle, Chapter Six, p.11
A Clever and Comedic Adventure
Goldblatt’s storytelling blends satire, mystery, and sharp humor into a narrative that keeps readers guessing. The plot follows Elmer J. Schmo, a billionaire tired of his wealth and looking for something more thrilling than his lavish lifestyle. Enter Just Plain Joe, a man with no home, no family, and no reason to turn down a wild challenge—except maybe his own self-preservation. Together, they embark on a journey to find four legendary bottles hidden at the earth’s extremes, and every chapter delivers another burst of clever writing and comedic timing.
One standout moment is when the story fully leans into its absurdity, placing Joe in situations so outlandish that they become a metaphor for human determination and curiosity. Despite its humor, the book captures something real about chasing dreams and seeking meaning in unexpected places. Goldblatt masterfully builds a story that’s both a parody of adventure tales and a genuinely engaging read.
With its imaginative premise and laugh-out-loud moments, this book feels like a refreshing change of pace for readers tired of predictable plots. It’s smart, funny, and brilliantly written, proving Goldblatt knows exactly how to keep readers entertained while giving them something to think about.
