O tej zvočni knjigi
From the singular mind of Zosia Mamet, a collection of charmingly witty and achingly vulnerable essays about the challenge and magic of growing up in show business
You may know Zosia Mamet from her singular role as Shoshanna on Girls, or for being one of Hollywood’s original nepo babies (or as she says, “a B-minus nepo baby, a nepito baby if you will”).
What you might not know is that as a toddler she visited theaters where her mom was rehearsing, crawling around on the floor and scrunching herself between seats; that she earnestly believed in Santa Claus for way too long; that she spent years navigating body image issues in hopes of finding elusive self-love; and that she was so overwhelmed and overjoyed when finally meeting her idol David Sedaris that she hid in the bathroom and melted into a “puddle of glitter.”
By turns charmingly witty and achingly vulnerable, the essays in Does This Make Me Funny? introduce us to Zosia Mamet in all her glory—from her early days growing up in literary and dramatic circles, to her years as a young adult pining for acceptance and love, to her first attempts to make it as an actor, to where she (and Shosh) are now. A gripping, funny, and earnest look at what it means to be a girl in the world and how to define yourself amid the bustle of show business, Does This Make Me Funny? is a captivating debut from a natural-born storyteller.
