"Too Fat to Fish" by Artie Lange

book review by Riley Burnham 6/24/2023

really good book(!) thoroughly good, to be honest

i knew pretty early in i'd be finishing this one, & was snickering/laughing out loud during the part recounting his first sexual forays (lol!)

extremely good & highly recommendable; full of mistakes & rock-bottom scenarios [lots of drugs]

pretty profound when Lange admits that his downward spiral & fervent addictions are related to losing his dad & some other difficult family stuff -- makes sense truly

acting, stand-up, sketch comedy...

oh, his suicide attempt is profound as well, as he describes excellent details of his thought-processes & experience -- thankfully he survives & lives to tell the tale
