I'm Laughing Because I'm Crying : A Memoir. by Mayer, Youngmi.;
Do you know what happens if you laugh while crying? Hair grows out of your butthole. It was a constant truism Youngmi Mayers mother would say to cheer her up when she was overtaken with grief. In this disarmingly funny memoir, Mayer jokes through the stories of her life, from her childhood in Korea to her adult years in New York City, in hopes of passing onto the reader what her family passed down to her: the gift of laughing while crying. Because throughout it all, the one thing she learned was one cannot exist without the other.Library Bound Incorporated
