The author relates stories of her childhood and how, after being run down by a car, she goes crazy and ends up in an asylum for a year.

She finally discovers, through the alternative comedy circuit, a comic talent which is taking her rapidly towards stardom. Near Fine/Near Fine. ISBN: 9780002157100
