Summary:"A tour-de-force of comedy and reflection about the perilous journey from kindergarten to twelfth grade and beyond from the beloved stand-up comic and creator of The Great Depresh"--
Gulman takes us on the journey of a comedian-in-the-making who is his own worst-- and most persistent-- enemy. He takes us through every year of his childhood education: from failing to impress at show-and-tell to literally fumbling in his first big football game. Along the way we discover how Gulman laid the foundation for his career as a comedian-- and how he eventually found himself back in his mother's house in suburban Boston, struggling to regain his mental health. -- adapted from jacket
