Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Zoe is a wreck. She is a 27 year old receptionist in an S&M Dungeon and member of the informal "Idiot's Anonymous" support group, she struggles daily to keep herself from relapsing back to heroin, and she is surrounded by colorful and bizarre characters who struggle with their own addictions and unstable lives. Clearly, Zoe's story is not for everyone, as it is offensive and vulgar and sometimes, disgusting and disturbing. However, it is also extremely funny at times, and you have to laugh at how predictable the characters can be, as well as Zoe's chronic poor judgment. I'm not sure I can recommend this to many of my friends but for those who can find humor in addiction, sex, perversity, and an entire book filled with offensive language, this one may be for you!

A slyly constructed semi-autobiographical story about a young woman skirting the edge of the '90s, dealing with relationships, her less-than-perfect past, and artistic angst, Diary of an Emotional Idiot is edgy and entertaining--a mesmerizing story of the more surreal aspects of day-to-day living on country back roads and Manhattan's East Village. 192 pp. Author tour. National media & online publicity. 30,000 print. No library descriptions found. |
