DESCRIPTION:
Flailing in jobs, failing at love, getting addicted and un-addicted to people, food, and drugs - I'll Tell You in Person is a disarmingly frank account of attempts at adulthood and all the less than perfect ways we get there. Chloe Caldwell has an unsparing knack for looking within and reporting back what's really there, rather than what she'd like you to see.
Lauren Grabowski said Chloe Caldwell is my Miki Howald. When I opened this book yesterday to read the introduction, I felt like a friend was confiding in me. That's because Caldwell's work is so personal, so intimate, her words read like the disclosure of secrets in a very relateable and approachable way. Her writing style is hilarious and evocative and observational. I enjoyed her essays so much that I almost didn't tire Chloe Caldwell is able to balance self-deprecation and humor - I was entertained throughout the entire book. I laughed out loud, covered my face, grimaced, etc. - if she's timid to share her sordid tales, it doesn't show through her writing. I enjoyed her essays so much that I almost didn't tire of reading about. Fun to read and a great story teller! Good story and tale of how a young woman goes through the throws of learning to grow through life all the while being young. She sounds like a girl who has been through a lot and decided to share her story with us. Great fun read!
