Doreen by Doreen - 9221

For fans of Schitt's Creek and Fleabag. Doreen invites you on her uproarious ride. She is as unpredictable as a spinning coin, yet as familiar as your morning coffee. ____ Embark on a one-way Greyhound journey to authenticity with Doreen by Doreen, the unapologetically real and riotously funny odyssey of one woman's pursuit of everything from a GED to her very own Prince Charming. In Jo Ferrone's audaciously crafted narrative, we meet Doreen—with her beat-up American Tourister, a suitcase more symbolic than practical, stuffed with tattered dreams and a loyalty card to life's hard knocks. This self-taught philosopher of the everyday embarks on an expedition that wobbles across the colorful linoleum of Wawas and Waffle Houses and stumbles through the enchanting gates of Disney World. Doreen by Doreen isn't just a story. It's a vibrant, living testament to the grit it takes to glue together a life that's threatening to fall apart at every janky seam and piece together the fractured fairytale she deserves. With grammar that would make an English teacher weep but a narrative voice that will have you howling with laughter, Doreen by Doreen receives a proud C- in conventional composition but an A+ in heart, humor, and unparalleled human spirit. In a literary landscape stuffed with pretension and artifice, Doreen's voice—raw, irreverent, and profoundly sincere—cuts like a hot knife through "I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter".
