Everything Is Going to Be Great

di Rachel Shukert (Autore)

Harper Perennial, 2010

“Shukert's sharp comic turns careen smack into the middle of our hearts.” — Los Angeles Times Everything Is Going to Be Great, is performer, playwright, comedian, and author Rachel Shukert’s hilarious memoir of traveling through Europe in her twenties. She chronicles her youthful navigation through the haphazard fun and debauchery of new freedoms, and the growing pains that ultimately accompany “adulthood.” Fans of Sloane Crosley and David Sedaris are going to love Shulkert’s story, and her sharp, smart humor. What happens when your grand European tour of self-discovery ends with a broken nose, a stolen wallet, and several questionable romantic choices? A Disastrous Grand Tour: Follow Shukert from a drunken Bastille Day celebration that ends in a Parisian hospital to the baffling streets of Amsterdam, where she navigates questionable holiday traditions and even more questionable men. Laugh-Out-Loud Humorous Essays: Each chapter reads like a standalone story, packed with the kind of sharp wit and cringe-worthy honesty that turns a series of terrible decisions—like going home with a stranger you *think* is European—into comedy gold. Unfiltered Twenty-Something Life: A candid look at being young, broke, and ambitious, capturing the existential dread and dark humor of navigating early adulthood with no money and absolutely no plan. Expat Life in Europe: From accidentally swallowing a dental crown to finding a job promoting a comedy club, this is a hilarious deep-dive into the absurd realities of living and working abroad in the early 2000s.
