Non-Fiction Memoir | Humor
Anais Nin, Anne Frank and Sylvia Plath wrote the world’s
most famous diaries. And where are they today? Dead. But the
world’s OTHER great diarist, Joan Rivers, is alive and
kicking. And complaining. (at the time of
publication) In the extraordinary tradition of The Habit of Being:
Letters of Flannery O’Connor and George Orwell’s
Diaries, comes an intimate and enriching glimpse into
the mind of the most illuminating woman-of-letters of her
generation—the provocative exploration of an age in which
she has lived on and on and on and on. Following up the phenomenal success of her headline-making
New York Times bestseller I Hate
Everyone...Starting With Me, the unstoppable Joan Rivers
is at it again. When her daughter Melissa gives her a diary
for Christmas, at first Joan is horrified—who the hell does
Melissa think she is? That fat pig, Bridget Jones? But as
Joan, being both beautiful and introspective, begins to
record her day-to-day musings, she realizes she has a lot to
say. About everything. And everyone, God help them. The result? A no-holds-barred, delightfully vicious and
always hilarious look at the everyday life of the ultimate
diva. Follow Joan on a family vacation in Mexico and on
trips between New York and Los Angeles where she mingles
with the stars, never missing a beat as she delivers
blistering critiques on current events, and excoriating
insights about life, pop culture, and celebrities (from A to
D list), all in her relentlessly funny signature style. This is the Diary of a Mad Diva. For the first time
in a century, a diary by someone that’s actually worth reading.
