Publisher's Summary
Based on the belief that there's more to women's lives than just getting a date, Gilman's stories tell of struggling to get a life and a clue, and engaging in some spectacularly demented behavior along the way. Whether she's an uncool white kid in a tough Puerto Rican neighborhood twirling around in her tutu, a teenager chasing rock stars, an ambitious cub reporter realizing there's more to the world than her own navel, or a feminist bride-to-be unexpectedly finding nirvana in David's Bridal Salon, Gilman's memoir is so engaging it reads like the very best fiction. At turns heartbreaking, insightful, and screamingly funny, it uniquely chronicles a generation and heralds a talented writer of note.

What the critics say
"Gilman...makes common scenarios fresh with humor and wry social commentary." (Publishers Weekly)
"Gilman's wisecracking, raw narrative about universal experiences...is reminiscent of David Sedaris' writing....Hilarious, assured, and moving, these are wildly entertaining stories that readers will want to share instantly with friends." (Booklist)
