FAME-ISH: My Life at the Edge of Stardom (Hardcover)

A riotously funny collection of essays by actress and comedian Mary Lynn Rajskub about her awkward, bumbling rise to fameIt's not easy being unabashedly famous. Fame. Fortune. Younger men. Being mistaken for different actresses who are slightly prettier and more famous than you. It's all part of the gig, and Mary Lynn Rajskub is a pro. Hilarious and self-deprecating, FAME-ISH is Rajskub's debut collection of essays. Smart, satirical, and relatable, this book gives new meaning to the word icon, as Rajskub navigates the entertainment world against the backdrop of her own quirky idiosyncrasies. She describes what it's like to make out with Tom Cruise, be a waitress at Denny's, and find your life's purpose in 300 indecipherable, not-easy steps-all in a day's work. Rajskub is honest about her experiences with bisexuality, her college years as a slug, and the bright lights of stardom, ultimately giving the people what they want: an endearing look at what it's like to be unabashedly famous.
