From the outrageously filthy and oddly innocent comedienne and star of the powerful 2015 film
I Smile Back
Sarah Silverman comes a memoir--her first book--that is at once shockingly personal, surprisingly poignant, and still pee-in-your-pants funny.
In this collection of humorous essays, Sarah Silverman tells tales of growing up Jewish in New Hampshire, losing her virginity, learning to curse at 3 years old, and being a bedwetter until she was old enough to drive, and in a surprisingly poignant piece, she recounts the accidental death of her infant brother. Of course, in her loopy, taboo-breaking way, she always manages somehow to leave you laughing. But then you'd expect nothing less from a woman who sang to her boyfriend on national television that she was "F***ing Matt Damon."
