A Very Punchable Face: A Memoir
If there is one trait that makes someone well suited for a life and career in comedy it is the ability to take a punch, both metaphorically, and, occasionally, physically. In this collection of hilarious essays, Colin Jost (an SNL head writer and the co-anchor of the weekly 'Weekend Update' segment) learns how to take a beating . . .
Told with a healthy dose of self-deprecation, A Very Punchable Face reveals the brilliant mind behind some of the dumbest sketches on television, and lays bare the heart and humor of a hardworking guy, with a face you can't help but want to punch!
"Colin Jost is as funny as his face is punchable. Which is to say: very!" -- Zadie Smith, bestselling author of White Teeth, Swing Time, and Intimations
