Reviews
"A driving, wild and hilarious ramble of a book, what might have happened had Hunter S. Thompson embedded himself in a network studio." -- The Washington Post "Dostoyevsky by way of 30 Rockefeller Center . . . the best new book I've read this year or last." -- The Wall Street Journal   "This book is absurd fiction. . . . Scathing and funny." -- The New York Times   "Hilarious and filled with turns of phrase and hidden beauty like only a collection of Norm Macdonald stories could be." -- Esquire   "Raucous . . . a hilarious, innovative work." -- A.V. Club   "Part personal history and part meta riff on celebrity memoirs, the book, it quickly becomes clear, is also just partly true (and all hilarious)." -- Vulture "My three favorite books: 1. The Bible, by Moses and other guys 2. The Art of the Deal, by President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump (a.k.a. President Trumpy) 3. Based on a True Story, by Norm Macdonald   I have not read the first two. I have read Based on a True Story, and I believe it to be largely bullshit, but it is very, very, very funny! Thanks, Norm, for letting me be part of this Booker Prize for Literature-quality effort." --David Letterman "Norm is brilliant and thoughtful and there is sensitivity and creative insight in his observations and stories. A lot of comics over the years have been compared to Mark Twain, but I think Norm is the only one who actually matches the guy in terms of his voice and ability. I seriously f**king love Norm Macdonald. Please buy his book. He probably needs the cash. He's really bad with money." --Louis C.K., from the foreword   "Norm is one of my all-time favorites, and this book was such a great read I forgot how lonely I was for a while." --Amy Schumer   "I always thought Normie's stand-up was the funniest thing there was. But this book gives it a run for its money." --Adam Sandler   "Norm is one of the greatest stand-up comics who's ever worked--a totally original voice. His sense of the ridiculous and his use of juxtaposition in his writing make him a comic's comic. We all love Norm." --Roseanne Barr   "Norm Macdonald makes me laugh my ass off. Who is funnier than Norm Macdonald? Nobody." --Judd Apatow   "Norm Macdonald is more than a triple threat--he's a septuple threat. He is smart, funny, wry, rakish, polite, rakish . . . no, wait. He is polite, insightful, and . . . aaaaah . . . warm. No. He's exciting. Yeah. Exciting! You never know what he'll do. Okay, then make that unpredictable. Add that up. He's amazing." --Alec Baldwin   "Norm only has to grunt to make me laugh. And this book is three hundred pages? Sign me up." --Sophia Amoruso, author of  #GIRLBOSS   "Norm is a double threat. His material and timing are both top-notch, which is unheard of. He is one of my favorites, both on- and off-stage." --Dave Attell   "David Letterman said it best: There is no one funnier than Norm Macdonald." --Rob Schneider, "A driving, wild and hilarious ramble of a book, what might have happened had Hunter S.

Synopsis
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * "Driving, wild and hilarious" ( The Washington Post ), here is the incredible "memoir" of the legendary actor, gambler, raconteur, and Saturday Night Live veteran. When Norm Macdonald, one of the greatest stand-up comics of all time, was approached to write a celebrity memoir, he flatly refused, calling the genre "one step below instruction manuals." Norm then promptly took a two-year hiatus from stand-up comedy to live on a farm in northern Canada. When he emerged he had under his arm a manuscript, a genre-smashing book about comedy, tragedy, love, loss, war, and redemption. When asked if this was the celebrity memoir, Norm replied, "Call it anything you damn like.", NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "Driving, wild and hilarious" ( The Washington Post ), here is the incredible "memoir" of the legendary actor, gambler, raconteur, and Saturday Night Live veteran.
