À propos de cet audio

 For readers of Nora Ephron, Tina Fey, and David Sedaris, this hilarious, poignant, and extremely frank collection of personal essays confirms Lena Dunham—the acclaimed creator, producer, and star of HBO’s Girls—as one of the brightest and most original writers working today.

“If I can take what I’ve learned in this life and make one treacherous relationship or degrading job easier for you, perhaps even prevent you from becoming temporarily vegan, then every misstep of mine will have been worthwhile. This book contains stories about wonderful nights with terrible boys and terrible days with wonderful friends, about ambition and the two existential crises I had before the age of twenty. About fashion and its many discontents. About publicly sharing your body, having to prove yourself in a meeting full of fifty-year-old men, and the health fears (tinnitus, lamp dust, infertility) that keep me up at night. I’m already predicting my future shame at thinking I had anything to offer you with this book, but also my future glory in having stopped you from trying an expensive juice cleanse or having the kind of sexual encounter where you keep your sneakers on. No, I am not a sexpert, a psychologist, or a registered dietician. I am not a married mother of three or the owner of a successful hosiery franchise. But I am a girl with a keen interest in self-actualization, sending hopeful dispatches from the front lines of that struggle.” Divertissement et célébrités Drôle Célébrité Spirituel Comédie Infertilité

Literally searching all over the internet to find more ways to listen to Lena. Thank you for being such a beautiful weirdo

Love Lena

I've never listened to someone read their own book so paced, slowly, to let it unfold. She doesn't rush.

Lena is vulnerable and powerful.

I adore her writing, and her pace. Recommend.

Give this a chance

I suffered through almost all this audiobook trying to “give it a chance” because even though her views on the world are like no one I’ve ever met... it’s good to hear other perspectives, right? but honestly... it’s so so strange! If you are in anyway religious or even relatively traditional you will hate this! I told my mom she could not listen to it or else she would be so disturbed... she was! Unless you are very modern in your view of sex, femininity, and expression, this book is not for you. Be prepared for erotic almost orgy-like detailed descriptions of her love life and college years and the very unique parenting style her parents used (Just look up her dads art and that will explain it all... ). She really wasn’t afraid to talk about all things taboo (which I’m normally down for) but this book lacked any class or tact in its delivery. It’s parts of the book like when she assumed we all examined our younger siblings private parts without any concern for their personal space that bothered (and kind of disturbed) me. I’m just really not that kind of girl Lena, sorry! :)

I’m not a naturally critical person but I hated it...
