Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can't Avoid is a 2007 book written by Daniel Handler, under the pseudonym Lemony Snicket. It is a book of quotes drawn mainly from Snicket's famous A Series of Unfortunate Events. [2][3]
The official synopsis from publishers HarperCollins is as follows:
Life is a turbulent journey, fraught with confusion, heartbreak, and inconvenience. Unfortunately, this book will not help.
Instead, this book of wit and wisdom offers a selection of alarming but inescapable truths from the work of Lemony Snicket, along with selections from his unpublished papers and remarks he has made at dinner parties and anarchist riots. [4]

In it, Mr. Snicket serves up nearly a hundred inviolable life lessons that no else would dare admit. Many are drawn from A Series of Unfortunate Events, like, "It is always cruel to laugh at people, although sometimes if they are wearing an ugly hat it is hard to control yourself." Other wisdom has been prepared by Mr. Snicket solely for this solemn publication, such as, "Everyone should be able to do one card trick, tell two jokes, and recite three poems, in case they are ever trapped in an elevator."
