"Magnificent." -People Magazine The instant New York Times
bestseller: Laugh-out-loud, deeply insightful, and emotion-filled
essays from multitalented actress, comedian, podcaster, and writer
Casey Wilson. Casey Wilson has a lot on her mind and she isn't
afraid to share. In this dazzling collection, each essay skillfully
constructed and brimming with emotion, she shares her thoughts on
the joys and vagaries of modern-day womanhood and motherhood,
introduces the not-quite-typical family that made her who she is,
and persuasively argues that lowbrow pop culture is the perfect
lens through which to examine human nature. Whether she's extolling
the virtues of eating in bed, processing the humiliation over her
father's late in life perm, mourning her mother's passing, or
revealing her patented method for keeping the mystery alive in a
marriage, Casey is witty, candid, and full of poignant and funny
surprises. Humorous dives into her obsessions and areas of personal
expertise-self-help, nice guys, cool girls (not her) and how to
receive visitors in the bath-are matched by touching meditations on
female friendship, anger, grief, motherhood, and identity. Reading
The Wreckage of My Presence is like spending time with a close
friend-a deeply passionate, full-tilt, joyous, excessive,
compulsive, shameless, hungry-for-it-all, loyal, cheerleading
friend. A friend who is ready for any big feelings that come her
way-and isn't afraid to embrace them.
