Everything Is Going to Be GreatEverything Is Going to Be Great
'shukert's sharp comic turns careen smack into the middle of our hearts."
" Los Angeles Times
From performer, playwright, comedian, author and writer and producer of "Glow" and "Superirl" Rachel Shukert, Everything Is Going to Be Great, is a hilarious memoir of traveling through Europe in her twenties. Rachel chronicles her youthful navigation through the haphazard fun and debauchery of new freedoms, and the growing pains that ultimately accompany 'adulthood.' Fans of Sloane Crosley and David Sedaris are going to love Shulkert's story, and her sharp, smart humor.
After graduating from NYU with an acting degree and no money, the author embarks on an accidental European vacation that features a dental emergency that almost ends in a threesome with Italian men and a run-in with sausage-loving neo-Nazis. Original. 30,000 first printing.
Traveling from Vienna to Zurich to Amsterdam, Shukert bounces through complicated relationships, drunken mishaps, miscommunication, and the reality-adjusting culture shock that every twentysomething faces when sent off to negotiate "the real world."
