Joshua Kobak (RENT, TARZAN, FUERZA BRUTA, AMERICAN IDIOT, SPIDERMAN TURN OFF THE DARK) has been a few "effen" places: from Broadway stages performing over 23 parts in 5 shows, to touring the continent 3 times on his motorcycle while performing in Broadway National Tours, to ultimately dealing with injuries that expanded his personal inner journey more vastly than the physical adventures he had taken.

"Oh The Effen Places You'll Effen Go" began as a poem gifted to his nephew for graduation. Years later, after a journey of spiritual, mental and physical rehabilitation, Kobak emerged as Your Uncle Josh, transforming the poem into a fully illustrated gift book for anyone commencing on a path that leads through the dynamic depths of life and change.

With all the planning that it takes to go places (in the outside world), "Oh The Effen Places You'll Effen Go" poetically describes how it is one's personal "inner" journey that gives direction to life's adventure. As a mirror shows you what you look like on the outside, your journal can show you what you look like within. In this book, we follow a walking journal as he sheds, crumples, burns, folds, faces and eventually embraces all of the pages of himself.

This book is the perfect gift for a graduation, Tony nomination, military deployment, surfacing from addiction or depression, or anyone going through a transition that could use a little effen' self-reflection.
