I never heard of him, but now I'm curious.

By the way, what's the difference between "uninhibited" and "disinhibited"?

An Acerbic Young Writer Takes Aim at the Identity Era
Tony Tulathimutte is a master comedian whose original and highly disturbing new book skewers liberal pieties.
By Giles Harvey

Tulathimutte, a master comedian with a virtuoso prose style, has produced an audacious, original and highly disturbing book that steers directly into the oncoming traffic of current liberal piety. An incandescent satire on the dead language, and dead thinking, of a corporatized identity politics, “Rejection” bristles with a furious intelligence...

One of Tulathimutte’s most appealing traits, both as a writer and as a person, is his disinhibited honesty, his willingness to say just about anything. “The basic trajectory of my life has been that I started off as a really weird idiot,” he told me over drinks at a bar near his apartment a few days later, “and ended up an insufferable asshole.” Later that week, I received an email from him saying that he needed to amend this. “It’s probably closer,” he wrote, “to ‘boring and remorseful asshole.’”
