A riotously funny collection of essays by actress and comedian Mary Lynn Rajskub about her awkward, bumbling rise to fameItÆs not easy being unabashedly famous. Fame. Fortune. Younger men. Being mistaken for different actresses who are slightly prettier and more famous than you. ItÆs all part of the gig, and Mary Lynn Rajskub is a pro. Hilarious and self-deprecating, FAME-ISH is RajskubÆs debut collection of essays. Smart, satirical, and relatable, this book gives new meaning to the word icon, as Rajskub navigates the entertainment world against the backdrop of her own quirky idiosyncrasies. She describes what it's like to make out with Tom Cruise, be a waitress at DennyÆs, and find your lifeÆs purpose in 300 indecipherable, not-easy stepsùall in a dayÆs work. Rajskub is honest about her experiences with bisexuality, her college years as a slug, and the bright lights of stardom, ultimately giving the people what they want: an endearing look at what itÆs like to be unabashedly famous.
