NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY VULTURE AND NPR
“Tamara is one of the funniest people I know and her memoir is as hilarious as she is.” --Cecily Strong
“Tamara’s life story is fascinating.” --Taika Waititi
A hilarious, moving memoir by Argentine-American comedian Tamara Yajia about growing up between two worlds.
From the day she was born, Tamara Yajia entered the world on a wave of absurdity. She was the newest member of a family no one would call normal, from her grandfather the salami obsessed poppers salesman, to her mother, the OnlyFans model. Not only will her family try anything once, like moving to the United States and opening a food stand named Sexy Chicken; they'll try anything multiple times, like moving back to Argentina, then back to the United States, all while Tamara manages to achieve some success as a preteen child actress after a jaw-dropping performance where she strips down to a garter belt in front of a crowd of rabbis.
The road doesn't get easier for a twelve-year-old Argentinian Jew trying to make it big in Orange County. The disappointment of giving up her childhood career as a performer makes for a rather tumultuous coming of age. But through grit, hustle, and a series of creative endeavors like joining a girl band, and performing her own one-woman show, Cumming of Age, Tam has made it through, and she's ready to spill some shit—figuratively and literally.
Featuring an unlikely combination of comedy and tragedy, generational struggle, and filthy sex jokes, Tamara Yajia's debut memoir is the messy, blazing story of a young Argentine trying to survive while holding on to her confidence, ambition, and sense of humor.©2025 Tamara Yajia (P)2025 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
批評家のレビュー
Author Tamara Yajia narrates her debut memoir with dynamic energy. Her stories of her childhood in Argentina feature her hilarious yet often inappropriate Jewish family. . . With emotional depth, she tackles difficult topics, such as her experience of being sexualized as a child, social awkwardness, immigration, grief, and loss. Her narration reflects the deep love she feels for her family; no matter how chaotic they may be, listeners will be moved. Yajia invites us to laugh with her through her shrewd observations of the absurdity and dysfunction of her childhood.
Cry for Me, Argentina is the perfect summer read — you’ll cry and laugh and crylaugh . . . The book makes the case that if you have a deliriously deranged family you might turn out the better for it. Tamara brims with life, and her superpower is that she’s unflinchingly, maybe compulsively, real when talking about it, almost like she was born with her embarrassment gene in reverse.
Yajia is a talented writer with an arsenal of wild stories. She’ll have you laughing and feeling perhaps a bit concerned about children like her. If you love memoirists like Jeannette Walls and Jennette McCurdy, who are both hilariously sanguine about their chaotic childhoods but are also unflinchingly honest, this one might be for you.
Yajia writes as if she’s unloading years of pain, grief, and hard knocks. With sharp, biting prose, she recalls every detail. . . as if it happened just yesterday.
Raw and raunchy, Yajia’s account is appealingly unfiltered.
Tamara is one of the funniest people I know and her memoir, Cry for Me, Argentina, is as hilarious as she is. Her mother is my favorite character who also happens to be a real person.
Tamara's life story is fascinating and magical.
Tamara Yajia is the rare bird that awakens the dim light of my melancholy and sends me into joyous hysterical laughter all at once.
Simultaneously funny and heartfelt.
The women in this book are maniacal, lurid, and wildly unhinged… my favorite!
The immigrant story we need right now—funny and foul and ill-fitted for the uplifting American dream formula.
You’re going to go into this book thinking it will simply be the funniest book you’ve ever read. But you’ll be wrong, because it will also be heartbreaking and so human and wondrous. There’s no way to walk away from this book without being madly in love with Tamara Yajia.
Tamara Yajia’s book is everything you could want from a memoir—the juiciest details, unforgettable characters, and sensually dancing on that delicate tightrope of hilarious and vulnerable. I wholeheartedly give it five out of five child stars.
No one has lived a life like Tamara Yajia. This memoir is absurd, vulnerable, and perverted in all the best ways.
