Beschreibung

<b>“Equal parts pee-your-pants hilarity and break your heart poignancy- like the perfect brunch date you never want to end!"--America Ferrera, Emmy award-winning actress in <i>Ugly Betty</i><br><br>From the <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of <i>I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter</i>, an utterly original memoir-in-essays that is as deeply moving as it is hilarious</b><br><br>Growing up as the daughter of Mexican immigrants in Chicago in the nineties, Erika Sánchez was a self-described pariah, misfit, and disappointment—a foul-mouthed, melancholic rabble-rouser who painted her nails black but also loved comedy, often laughing so hard with her friends that she had to leave her school classroom. Twenty-five years later, she’s now an award-winning novelist, poet, and essayist, but she’s still got an irrepressible laugh, an acerbic wit, and singular powers of perception about the world around her.<br><br>In these essays, Sánchez writes about everything from sex to white feminism to debilitating depression, revealing an interior life rich with ideas, self-awareness, and perception. Raunchy, insightful, unapologetic, and brutally honest, <i>Crying in the Bathroom </i>is Sánchez at her best—a book that will make you feel that post-confessional high that comes from talking for hours with your best friend.
