Alison Leiby
概要
“Alison Leiby is the Jewish millennial David Sedaris. Reading this book was like having a glass of wine with your funniest, smartest, and coolest friend.”—Bess Kalb, author of Nobody Will Tell You This But Me
Have you ever frozen when someone asks, “So, tell me about yourself?” If so, take a page from I'm a Lot. Alison Leiby proudly embraces the identities we’re often encouraged to hide: Housewives stan. Discount shopaholic. Former jock. Happily single. Childless by choice and proud cat mom. Through these different roles and identities, Leiby reveals her hard-earned wisdom about what it’s like to be a woman who does it all (except for the things that make her say “uh, no thank you”).
When she was nineteen years old, a complication from back surgery left Leiby on her deathbed. After a surprising recovery, you might assume Leiby was ready to seize life by the you-know-whats. But instead of letting this one miraculous experience define her, Leiby’s brush with death made her realize there is nothing more beautiful in this life than just getting to be yourself. And while women are still expected to conform to many patriarchal labels, Leiby ignores the pressure to be palatable and instead champions all the joyful, weird, and complicated selves she brings to the world.
In fourteen personal essays full of deadpan jokes, tender moments of candid introspection, and insightful social commentary, Leiby encourages us to ditch the manufactured Instagram persona and embrace the fact that sometimes the puzzle pieces don’t always fit to create a perfect picture, but that doesn’t mean we are incomplete.
批評家のレビュー
“Hilarious!”—Jenny Lawson, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Let’s Pretend This Never Happened
“I’m a fan of every TV show Alison Leiby has written on, so her book was a no-brainer for me. The essays are an exploration of identity, cleverly structured around each type of person she’s been. It kicks off with a harrowing near-death tale that informs the rest of the story, but don’t worry, it’s funny. No one can make you laugh while telling you about the time she almost died quite like Leiby.”—Ginny Hogan, Real Simple, “9 New Books by Women Comedians That Feel Like a Catch-Up With Your Funniest Friend”
“I’ve been an admirer of Alison Leiby’s for years. Her wit, vulnerability, intelligence, and confidence radiated every time I saw her perform, and it’s no different with this book. It's an absolute treat to read her writing. She’s the real deal, and I could not get enough. I want more. Second book, please!”—Phoebe Robinson, New York Times bestselling author of You Can’t Touch My Hair
“Alison Leiby is one of my favorite comedians—ever. She’s an incisive writer and hilarious stand-up who helps make sense of being a brilliant woman in this crazy world. I’m a Lot is all that but portable, which is nice, because Alison’s not gonna just go with you wherever you want, whenever you want.”—Ilana Glazer
“I devoured these upbeat, funny essays like so many ice-cold Diet Cokes. Alison Leiby’s voice is that of the smartest and warmest person at the one wedding table where they silo all the single people—you’ll have so much fun with her you won’t even bother trying to catch the bouquet.”—Rax King, author of Sloppy
“Alison Leiby has a way of bringing you along her hilarious path of essays, scattered with casual Diet Coke references, all under the guise of luring you into a deeply vulnerable place.”—Abbi Jacobson, author of I Might Regret This
“Leiby’s stories about her horrific teenage medical catastrophe, shopping at Loehmann’s, her undramatic abortion, and the indignities of dating at Cornell are the funniest and most bracingly candid essays I have read in years. I found myself laughing so much that I got angry I didn’t write it. I hope more bad things happen to her so she keeps writing more books.”—Bess Kalb, author of Nobody Will Tell You This But Me
