Hyperbole and a Half

Hilariously relatable misadventures for comedic relief seekers.

"Hyperbole and a Half could be a great read for anyone who loves to laugh and seeks lighthearted yet relatable stories. Brosh's humorous and naive drawings accompanying her mishaps and struggles, especially with depression, make her tales all the more endearing and thought-provoking. Readers are sure to both laugh and learn valuable life lessons from Brosh's unique perspectives and flawed coping mechanisms."

Description

Every time Allie Brosh posts something new on her hugely popular blog Hyperbole and a Half, the internet rejoices. Touching, absurd, and darkly comic, Allie Brosh’s highly anticipated book showcases her unique voice, leaping wit, and her ability to capture complex emotions with deceptively simple illustrations. This beautifully illustrated edition features more than fifty percent new content, with ten never-before-seen essays and one wholly revised and expanded piece as well as classics from the website like, “The God of Cake,” “Dogs Don’t Understand Basic Concepts Like Moving,” and her astonishing, “Adventures in Depression,” and “Depression Part Two,” which have been hailed as some of the most insightful meditations on the disease ever written. Brosh’s debut marks the launch of a major new American humorist who will surely make even the biggest scrooge or snob laugh.
