I first came across Tig Notaro as a guest on the podcast "This American Life," and soon saw her comedy special "Boyish Girl Interrupted." I was so delighted by her comedy. She has an hilarious deadpan manner. I was intrigued and discovered the Netflix documentary "Tig." Now completely enamored by Notaro, her comedy, and self, I had to read "I'm Just a Person." Notaro covers many of the aspects explored in the Netflix special, but with more depth. We get a true sense of Notaro's childhood, experiences with death and illness, and her ability to cope and survive with humour. If you are a fan of comedy, personal memoirs, and amazing women, this is a great read.
