Sure, I'll Join Your Cult

From “weird, scary, ingenious” (The New York Times) stand-up comedian Maria Bamford, a brutally honest and hilariously frenetic memoir about showbusiness, mental health, and the comfort of rigid belief systems—from Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People, to Suzuki violin training, to Richard Simmons, to 12-step programs.

Reviews

“If Maria Bamford had a cult, I'd join it.”
—Rachel Bloom, author of I Want to be Where the Normal People Are

“Maria is the kind of comedian you watch and think, ‘I’ve gotta write more and I’ve gotta think deeper.’  I’m glad she’s in the world.”
—Patton Oswalt, New York Times bestselling author of Zombie Spaceship Wasteland and Silver Screen Fiend

“Maria Bamford is deeply funny. her understanding of the world and her place in it is so specific to her brain and the many beautiful, bizarre voices that live inside it. Read this book to better understand one of our most special minds.”
—Nick Kroll

“A brutal and honest look at battling mental health. Is it funny?…Of course…It’s Maria, but it’s also gut wrenching. Take Maria’s hand and walk with her through good times, bad times, and coocoo for coco puffs times.”
—Oscar Nuñez

“Maria Bamford is my absolute favorite comedian. Read this book NOW!”
—Tig Notaro, author of I’m Just a Person
