Biography & Memoir

An "Entertainment Weekly" "must"-"It's hard to recall another collection of essays, or a memoir, with more natural charm."
Surrounded by dysfunctional men-from her fourteen-year-old son to her high-maintenance boss-Diana Joseph did what she had to do: survive. "I'm Sorry You Feel That Way" is an honest, hilarious, and instantly recognizable memoir of a truly modern woman. Funny, fearless, and warmhearted, it is a portrait of a woman in all her endless complexities and contradictions, and of the people she has come to love in spite of-or rather because of-theirs.
