Roseanne sold her soul to the devil in order to become famous--and now she wants it back. As controversial, original, and funny as ever, Roseanne returns to the page, honing her razor sharp observations on hypocrisy, hubris, tackling menopause, pharmaceuticals, and her grandkids, too. Bold, brash, and insightful, Roseanne discusses the humour of her everyday life alongside more serious topics as class warfare, feminism, the cult of celebrity, and Kabbalah.
--On Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt: "They make about $40 million a year in violent, psychopathic movies and give away three of it to starving children, trying to look as if they give a crap about humanity."
--On depression meds: "Did you ever think maybe we're supposed to be depressed? The economy is in the crapper, there's a never ending war, our kids are ungrateful little bastards ... half the world is starving and the other half is trying to lose weight! Maybe we should be depressed."
