The Bedwetter: Stories of Courage, Redemption, and Pee by Sarah Silverman

4.0

---

Silverman is, like most comics, a love-her or hate-her inspiration. This autobiography of sorts starts out crazy and ends even crazier, with the entire middle sprinkled with sincere stories of love and devotion for her family and dedication to her art while covered with a healthy layer of hilarity (or perhaps pee). I found myself literally laughing out loud at times, getting me strange looks on the train, as I listened to stories told without a filter. Speaking of, this really demands being listened to, particularly as Silverman narrates it herself. For those looking for one long stand-up routine, this is not it, but hearing her tell her stories is certainly a delight in its own right. Just watch out if you're at all easily offended.
