| Publisher Description: "Ariel Leve is the love child of David Sedaris and Fran Leibowitz. An original and funny voice.... Insightful and sharp." "Ariel Leve is brilliant and funny and the only other person I know without an oven. Buy this book and keep it close." "Funny, smart, delightfully cranky"(AJ Jacobs) Ariel Leve's Sunday Times Magazine (London) column "Cassandra" moves to book form. It Could Be Worse, You Could Be Me offers a humorously bleak perspective on life's potential to turn out badly... and Ariel's innate ability to put the black cloud into the silver lining. This is a book for schadenfreude aficionados; for readers who identify with Cassandra's slogan, "worrying is my yoga"; and for fans of Seinfeld, Ugly Betty, Sex & the City, Curb Your Enthusiasm, David Sedaris, Woody Allen, and New Yorker cartoons. |
