Description

A frank, funny personal essay collection about work, failure, feminism, and the messy business of being alive in your twenties and thirties. As she shares her hard-won insights from screwing up, growing up, and trying to find her own path, Anne T. Donahue's debut book offers all the honesty, laughs, and reassurance of a late-night phone call with your best friend. Whether she's giving a signature pep talk, railing against summer, or describing her own mental health struggles, Anne reminds us show more that failure is normal, saying no to things is liberating, and that we're all a bunch of beautiful disasters -- and she wouldn't have it any other way. show less

In this series of essays Anne T. Donahue entertains us with stories of work, school, failure, motivation and so much more. Immediately, her writing puts you at ease. Rather than reading this non-fiction curled up in bed, you are transported to a *bar* (or other such *fun* atmosphere) as you hysterically laugh at Donahue’s encounters, failures and attempts at “adulting.”

Canadian or not, Nobody Cares summarizes experiences we’ve all faced, but rather than looking back with bitterness, this work of art shows us the hilarity of growing up. One cannot help but connect with the struggles entangled in the essays within, similar in nature to that which Lincee Ray gives us in Why I Hate Green Beans.
