Anne Frank's underwear. \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestselling author Laurie Notaro--rightfully hailed as \"the funniest writer in the solar system\" (\u003ci\u003eThe Miami Herald\u003c\/i\u003e)--spares nothing and no one, least of all herself, in this uproarious new collection of essays on rudeness. With the sardonic, self-deprecating wit that makes us all feel a little better about ourselves for identifying with her, Laurie explores her recent misadventures and explains why it's not her who is nuts, it's them (and okay, sometimes it's her too). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhether confessing that her obsession with buying fabric has reached junior hoarder status or mistaking a friend's heinous tattoo as temporary, Laurie puts her unique spin--sometimes bizarre, always entertaining--on the many perils of modern living in a mannerless society. From shuddering at the graphic Harry Potter erotica conjured up at a writer's group to lamenting the sudden ubiquity of quinoa (\"It looks like larvae no matter how you cook it\"), \u003ci\u003eThe Potty Mouth at the Table \u003c\/i\u003eis whip-smart, unpredictable, and hilarious. In other words, irresistibly Laurie.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laurie Notaro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1451659393\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781451659399\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gallery Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/07\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.30w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2013 pg. 15\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/24\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/03\/2013","brand":"Laurie Notaro","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935906496767,"sku":"9781451659399","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_ca9f0856-276b-4bed-9b60-e5c9e14cd9f1.jpg?v=1681422508","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-potty-mouth-at-the-laurie-notaro-9781451659399","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
