Description: The firstborn of twins, William beat his younger brother into the world by several minutes -- and it is the last time William is first in anything. Determined to live his life as a consummate underachiever -- the ultimate imperfectionist -- he sets out to perfect the art of failure...and succeeds magnificently. From searching out second-rate schools and dead-end jobs, to fostering unhealthy and unfulfilling relationships -- including a love affair with an alcoholic girlfriend who has trouble remembering his name -- William chronicles his hilarious and surprisingly poignant travels down the road to mediocrity.
