Vulture's Best Comedy Books of 2022
In Eating Salad Drunk, comedy's biggest names come together to deliver succinct, hard-hitting humor in the form of haikus. Tackling topics from modern romance and screentime to self-love and loathing, these poignant and sometimes dirty poems offer a fresh perspective on coping in our "burnout age."
Contributors include Jerry Seinfeld, Michael Ian Black, Aubrey Plaza, Margaret Cho, Maria Bamford, Ray Romano, Aparna Nancherla, Ziwe Fumudoh, Chris Gethard, Sasheer Zamata, Colin Mochrie, Zach Woods, and many more! Curated by Gabe Henry, manager of Brooklyn's popular Littlefield comedy venue, Eating Salad Drunk also features 50 relatable black and white drawings by New Yorker cartoonist Emily Flake and a foreword by comedian and actor Aparna Nancherla (Crashing, BoJack Horseman, Inside Amy Schumer).
Eating Salad Drunk is the perfect gift for any fan of humor seeking an escape from our dystopian present. All author proceeds go towards Comedy Gives Back, supporting mental health and crisis resources for comedians.
"A hilarious read." —Rachel Bloom, co-creator and star of the award-winning TV series Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
