While browsing at the library this week I came across this book and decided to give it a try. This book is written by Veteran SNL comedian Julia Sweeney, many may know her from her alter personality Pat. This book had me laughing in some parts and gave me a lot of insight into her personal life. ( ) My gosh, what a delightful, insightful afternoon's read! Reading Julia Sweeney's "If It's Not One Thing It's Your Mother" is like when you're getting to know that amazing woman you just KNOW will be friends with you for life. She's candid, funny (obviously), pragmatic, fanciful - the entire enchillada. And what a writer! I'm recommending this book to everyone - please, please buy it and read it. I can't wait to buy her other books now that I've read this one. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
While Julia Sweeney is known as a talented comedienne and writer/performer of her one-woman shows, she is also a talented essayist--and the past few years have provided her with some rich material. Julia adopted a Chinese girl named Mulan and then, a few years later, married and moved from Los Angeles to Chicago. She writes about deciding to adopt her child, strollers, nannies, knitting, being adopted by a dog, The Food Network, and meeting Mr. Right through an email from a complete stranger. Some of the essays reveal Julia's ability to find that essential thread of human connection, whether it's with her mother-in-law or with an anonymous customer service rep during a late-night phone call. But no matter what the topic, Julia always writes with elegant precision, pinning her jokes with razor-sharp observations while articulating feelings that we all share.--From publisher description.
