For fans of the perceptive comedy of Hannah Gadsby, Lindy West, and Sarah Silverman,
Academy Award&11nominated and acclaimed stand-up comedian Jena Friedman presents a witty
and insightful collection of essays on the cultural flashpoints of today.Jena Friedman&17 life in
comedy began with her senior thesis on inequity in the Chicago comedy scene. It was, in short,
not funny, but it anticipated her career as a writer and comedian with acerbic wit and a keen,
cutting eye for social observation. Now, she brings her trademark whip-smart humor and cultural
criticism to this brainy and laugh-out-loud funny essay collection. Friedman effortlessly takes us
just beyond the edge of the uncomfortable with explorations on everything from why some
celebrities get buried for their indiscretions while others get a second (third, and fourth&30)
chance, how we should think about lines of appropriateness crossed decades ago, living in the
post- (post-) #MeToo world of today, and the power we hand to silence when we&17re told not to
joke about reproductive rights, gender, privilege, or class. Not Funny is a witty and bold collection,
challenging us to deeply consider why we do and do not laugh, from a rising star of comedy
always ready to call out hypocrisy wherever she finds it. And knows how to get a laugh while she
does it.
