we are never meeting in real life: essays
by Nholtzman
Blogger, Samantha Irby, has written a compelling, and wickedly funny book of essays, we are never meeting in real life.
Irby's essays chronicle her life in a contemporary writing style that pays attention to form, but skirts scholarly essay convention, (fine by me, let's read essays that mean something and say it in an interesting way).
She writes about her childhood, her college years, and the years she spends working at a veterinarian office.
Irby has experienced hardships that are often difficult to write about without sounding morose. However, Irby's talent as a comedian and writer is apparent in her candid and hilarious accounts of events like adapting a cat that she, and everyone else, hates.
we are never meeting in real life: essays, has been lauded by authors like Roxane Gay and Lindy West, and has been reviewed by organizations like Kirkus.
