Swerve

By Aisha Tyler

Book Overview

Aisha Tyler first made us laugh out loud on Talk Soup and Friends. Now, in this rowdy collection of pop culture essays, Aisha brings her razor-sharp wit to bear on such diverse topics as light beer, deep-fried Twinkies, karaoke, and casual sex. Recounting hilarious stories from her own life, Aisha investigates the mysteries of platonic friendship, draws comparisons between dating strategies and Sun Tzu's The Art of War, ponders the popularity of the bikini wax-"a very peculiar form of self-abuse under the guise of hygiene"-and answers, once and for all, the question of whether size matters. Fresh, ambitious, and shocking, "Swerve is very funny, quite witty, and thoroughly modern." (Seattle Weekly) Book jacket.
