“有时我想到有多少坏消息要告诉我的孩子，无休止的、循环往复的CVS收据卷轴上发生的真正可怕的事情，我想钻进床底下，永远不出来。我们该如何告诉他们这一切呢？我们能不能先播放比利-乔尔（Billy Joel）的 We Didn’t Start the Fire，然后准备好接受提问？其中第一个问题应该是，这怎么会是一首在电台播放的歌曲？”
在《纽约时报》畅销书作家和艾美奖获奖作家和制片人杰西-克莱因的第二部作品集中，她搞笑地揭露了围绕母亲身份的文化神话和不可能的期望，并探讨了中年的羞辱、凄凉和可能性。
以克莱恩特有的坦率和人性写成的本书是一部精辟、动人、经常令人捧腹的作品集。
“Sometimes I think about how much bad news there is to tell my kid, the endlessly long, looping CVS receipt scroll of truly terrible things that have happened, and I want to get under the bed and never come out. How do we tell them about all this? Can we just play Billy Joel’s We Didn’t Start the Fire and then brace for questions? The first of which should be, how is this a song that played on the radio?”
In New York Times bestselling author and Emmy Award-winning writer and producer Jessi Klein’s second collection, she hilariously explodes the cultural myths and impossible expectations around motherhood and explore the humiliations, poignancies, and possibilities of midlife.
Written with Klein’s signature candor and humanity, I’ll Show Myself Out is an incisive, moving, and often uproarious collection.
