Description

In a collection of personal essays that are "both riproaringly funny and sentimental, drawing natural (and justified) comparisons to David Sedaris and David Rakoff" ("Esquire"), longtime recording artist and actor Sam Harris recounts stories of friendship, love, celebrity, and growing up and getting sober. In sixteen brilliantly observed true stories, Sam Harris emerges as a natural humorist in league with David Sedaris, Chelsea Handler, Carrie Fisher, and Steve Martin, but with a voice uniquely his own. Praised by the "Chicago SunTimes" for his "manic, witty commentary," and with a storytelling talent "The New York Times" calls ""New Yorker" worthy," he puts a comedic spin on fulldisclosure episodes from his own colorful life. In "I Feel, You Feel" he opens for Aretha Franklin during a blizzard. "Promises" is a frontrow account of Liza Minnellis infamous wedding to "the man whose name shall go unmentioned." In "The Zoo Story" Harris desperately searches for a common bond with his roughandtumble fouryearold son. What better place to find painfully funny material than in growing up gay, gifted, and ambitious in the heart of the Bible belt? And thats just the first cut From partying to parenting, from Sunday school to getting sober, these slices of "Ham" will have you laughing and wiping away salty tears in equal measure with their universal and downtoearth appeal. After all, theres a little ham in all of us.
