Kind of like David Sedaris meets Elizabeth Wurtzel, Jen Lancaster uses "Bright Lights, Big Ass" as a showcase for her generally hilarious, brutally honest and raucous take on life in every aspect. I truly love humor essay style writing, so I could be biased.
A note to the faint of heart: If the mild profanity in the title of this book turns you off, you likely WON'T appreciate its contents. If, however, you love people who tell it like it is (and do so from a viewpoint they've spent a lifetime cultivating)? You'll love this book.
I'm glad I read it and have sought out other stories cultivated in Jennsylvania (read the book). In my view? This is her best collection.
