Tiffany Haddish is back with her highly anticipated new
essay collection, I Curse You With Joy.
It’s been a minute since readers last sat down with Tiffany
Haddish. Since The Last Black Unicorn, Haddish has catapulted to A-List
fame as the breakout star of Girls Trip. She’s walked the Oscars red
carpet, released a hit stand-up special with Netflix, and made history as the
first black female comedian to host Saturday Night Liveand Shark Week.
But it hasn’t been all VIP parties and free diving with apex
predators. In these humorous and heartfelt essays, Tiffany gets real about the
highs and lows of life. Believe it or not, there was a time when Tiffany didn’t
totally know who Tiffany was. Before she found her groove, she was on stage
dressed like her snobby airline coworkers telling halfhearted dick jokes. She
tanked.
It took a fake penis, some help from friends, and a little
encouragement from Bob Saget, but eventually Tiffany figured out Tiffany. I
Curse You With Joy celebrates all the lessons she learned along the way—the
joy and the pain. Tiffany reckons with the legacy of her childhood trauma, the
challenges of being a black woman in the entertainment industry, and her
bittersweet reunion with her estranged father after nearly twenty years apart.
And don’t worry, she’s got plenty of advice to share, too.
I Curse You With Joy is Tiffany Haddish unfiltered.
(We know what you’re thinking...how much more unfiltered can she get?) These
essays lay it all bare, bringing readers into Tiffany’s inner circle where joy,
honesty, humor, and heart are the order of the day.
