The book isn't about aliens, it's an entirely normal book. The main character just interprets every phrase relating to a body part literally, and thinks it's talking about aliens. It's just a humorous short story, not a whole lot to it beyond that.

Thank you.

I went back and read the italicized lines only. I got the joke now.

Don't forget to reread the punchline in the last sentence too ;)
