Description
Stand-up comedian Maria Bamford shares her honest and humorous memoir about show business, mental health, and finding belonging. From struggling with an eating disorder as a child to navigating a career in the arts, she has tried various methods to fit in. Bamford recounts her experiences with anonymous fellowships, hypomanic episodes, and everyday struggles, all while seeking a sense of community and acceptance. With sincerity and dark whimsy, she explores what it means to keep going despite not being very good at it. This memoir is a quest to participate in something, and Bamford hopes to transform isolating experiences into comedy that will make readers feel less alone.
