Blurb:
Whether she’s getting attacked by a squirrel, uncovering the legend of Japan’s golden butt-balls, or being driven to self-harm by Cirque du Soleil, Barbarella bares all in her comical, poignant, and ferociously honest stories.
“Barbarella sees, hears, and analyzes everything. She is like Neo in The Matrix, if Neo were played by Woody Allen,” says David, her husband, or as he refers to himself, Mr. Barbarella.
In this compilation of columns with commentary by both Barbarella and David, Barb demonstrates just how fun “a little f***ed up” can be.
My Review:
My initial reactions…simply clear…not whispered stories to and from a friend, but unapologetic clarity…don’t know her but glad to meet her via her book…I think my dad would have enjoyed this book…thank you for sharing cousin Jeffrey…anxiety – I understand.
“Them” YES, have experienced this as well and the vacuum is the only weapon.
“Germ Warfare” I can relate, maybe not as passionately, but I have imagined stuff floating off feet that are too close to a low table. Not quite detailed, but I’m aware of my own feet placement. Maybe school science class should include something less graphic than petri-dishes? Come on, David, that was mean…ish.
If you can read “Diary of a Diva” and not smile or laugh then I just don’t know how.
