In her hit Netflix comedy special Baby Cobra, an eight-month pregnant Ali Wong resonated so strongly that she even became a popular Halloween costume. Wong told the world her remarkably unfiltered thoughts on marriage, sex, Asian culture, working women, and why you never see new mom comics on stage but you sure see plenty of new dads.

The sharp insights and humor are even more personal in this completely original collection. She shares the wisdom she’s learned from a life in comedy and reveals stories from her life off stage, including the brutal single life in New York (i.e. the inevitable confrontation with erectile dysfunction), reconnecting with her roots (and drinking snake blood) in Vietnam, tales of being a wild child growing up in San Francisco, and parenting war stories. Though addressed to her daughters, Ali Wong’s letters are absurdly funny, surprisingly moving, and enlightening (and gross) for all.

intimista, engraçado e sincero

narrado pela própria Ali, a comediante conta diversas experiências da sua vida, as dificuldades que enfrentou e enfrenta como uma comediante mulher e asianamerican, o seu aborto, as loucuras da juventude e a história de amor com seu marido e suas filhas. foi uma leitura boa, tirando umas partes em que não achei muita graça ou não entendi porque ela estava contando aquilo… ótimo pra quem quer começar a ler memoirs
