Title: Hard Laughter Author: Anne Lamott Narrator: Karissa Vacker Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 55 minutes Release date: January 22, 2019 Genres: Contemporary Women Publisher's Summary: Writer (and sometime housecleaner) Jennifer is twenty-three when her beloved father, Wallace, is diagnosed with a brain tumor. This catastrophic discovery sets off Anne Lamott's unexpectedly sweet and funny first novel, which is made dramatic not so much by Wallace's illness as by the emotional wake it sweeps under Jen and her brothers, self-contained Ben and feckless, lovable Randy. With characteristic affection and accuracy, Lamott sketches this offbeat family and their nearest and dearest as they draw ever closer in the intimacy Jen prizes 'among the other estimable things: good music, good hard laughter, good sex, good industry, and good books.'
