Summary:
"From the creator, producer, and star of HBO'
s
Girls and the comedy films Creative Nonfiction and Tiny Furniture comes a wise and candid collection of personal essays. Dunham illuminates the experiences that are part of making one'
s
way in the world: falling in love, feeling alone, being ten pounds overweight despite eating only health food, having to prove yourself in a room full of men twice your age, finding true love, and, most of all, having the guts to believe that your story is one that deserves to be told. "If I could take
what
I've
learned
and make one menial job easier for you, or prevent you from having the
kind
of sex where you feel you must keep your sneakers on in case you want to run away during the act, then every misstep of mine was worthwhile. I'm already predicting my future shame at thinking I had anything to offer you, but also my future glory in having stopped you from trying an expensive juice cleanse or thinking that it was your fault when the person you are dating suddenly backs away, intimidated by the clarity of your personal mission here on earth. No, I am not a sexpert, a psychologist or a dietician. I am not a mother of three or the owner of a successful hosiery franchise. But I am a
girl
with a keen interest in having it all, and
what
follows are hopeful dispatches from the frontlines of that struggle."--Provided by publisher.
