" Jong-Fast has an unusually wry sense of humor. . . . Her life so far has, in fact, been curiously full of nutty episodes [and] colorful characters."
- The New York Sun
" A funny, sly, affectionate, nutty, beyond-irreverent tale of celebrity dysfunction and down-to-earth truths."
- Daphne Merkin, author of Enchantment and Dreaming of Hitler
" Molly Jong-Fast proves that it's never too late to have someone else's happy childhood. Molly is a smart, wickedly funny absurdity magnet. (Or is that absurdity magnate?) Run, don't walk to smell this new book, laugh out loud, and be swept up in a very specific Tasmanian devil-esque kind of madness."
- Moon Unit Zappa, author of America the Beautiful
