In the span of four months in 2012, Tig Notaro was hospitalized for a debilitating intestinal disease called C-diff, her mother unexpectedly died, she went through a breakup, and then she was diagnosed with bilateral breast cancer. Hit with this devastating barrage, Tig took her grief onstage. Days after receiving her cancer diagnosis, she broke new comedic ground, opening an unvarnished set, which went viral instantly, with the words “Good evening. Hello. I have cancer. How are you?” Now the wildly popular star takes stock of that no good, very bad year—a difficult yet astonishing period in which tragedy turned into absurdity and despair transformed into joy. I’m Just a Person is a moving and often hilarious look at this brave, very funny woman’s journey into the darkness and her thrilling return from it.
I have a question about the book:
