Book description
Sarah Silverman's father taught her to curse-at the age of three.
She was a chronic bedwetter-until she was old enough to drive. She
lost her virginity at age 19-but didn't really know it. These are just
a few of the outrageous true tales that Silverman shares in her
alternately hilarious and moving collection of autobiographical
essays. With her signature taboo-breaking humour, Silverman writes on
everything from her epic struggle with hairy arms (there wasn't enough
wax in the world) to the death of her infant brother (It was Nana's
fault) and always leaves the reader with a smile. Mixed in among the
essays are scores of embarrassing photos, mortifying childhood diary
entries, and truly humiliating e-mails to and from her comedian friends.
Sarah Silverman (born December 1, 1970) is an American comedian,
writer, singer, guitarist and actress. Her satirical comedy addresses
social taboos and controversial topics such as racism, sexism, and
religion. Silverman was first noticed as a writer and occasional
performer on Saturday Night Live. She now stars in and produces The
Sarah Silverman Program, which debuted in 2007.
