The debut collection of raucous, dark, strange, laugh-out-loud satirical stories from the former Late Show with Stephen Colbert writer and New Yorker contributor, featuring a foreword by Stephen Colbert Jen Spyra has worked in nearly every kind of comedy there is: penning stories for The Onion, writing skits and one-liners for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, contributing pieces to The New Yorker and McSweeney's, and taking the stage for improv at UCB Theatre in Manhattan. Her incredible range is on display in this uproarious, addictive collection of short stories that includes a disturbingly hilarious tale about how far one woman will go to achieve the perfect wedding body, a story of the first influencer dating back to prehistoric times, a reimagining of a Christmas classic in which the snowman who comes to life turns out to be a real pervert, and the memoir of an up-and-coming 1940s starlet who gets transplanted to modern-day Hollywood and tries to claw her way back to the top, despite being ridiculously unwoke.
