Furiously Happy
For fans of David Sedaris, Tina Fey and Caitlin Moran comes the new book
from Jenny Lawson, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Let's
Pretend This Never Happened...
In Let's Pretend This Never
Happened, Jenny Lawson regaled readers with uproarious stories of her
bizarre childhood. In her new book, Furiously Happy, she explores her
lifelong battle with mental illness. A hysterical, ridiculous book about
crippling depression and anxiety? That sounds like a terrible idea. And
terrible ideas are what Jenny does best.
As Jenny says: 'You
can't experience pain without also experiencing the baffling and
ridiculous moments of being fiercely, unapologetically, intensely and
(above all) furiously happy.' It's a philosophy that has - quite
literally - saved her life.
Jenny's first book, Let's Pretend
This Never Happened, was ostensibly about family, but deep down it was
about celebrating your own weirdness. Furiously Happy is a book about
mental illness, but under the surface it's about embracing joy in
fantastic and outrageous ways. And who doesn't need a bit more of that?
