You may know Zosia Mamet from her singular role as Shoshanna on Girls, or for being one of Hollywood''s original nepo babies (or as she says, ''a B-minus nepo baby, a nepito baby if you will''). What you might not know is that as a toddler she visited theatres where her mum was rehearsing, crawling around on the floor and scrunching herself between seats; that she earnestly believed in Santa Claus for way too long; that she spent years navigating body image issues in hopes of finding elusive self-love; and that she was so overwhelmed and overjoyed when finally meeting her idol David Sedaris that she hid in the bathroom and melted into a ''puddle of glitter.'' By turns charmingly witty and achingly vulnerable, the essays in Does This Make Me Funny? introduce us to Zosia Mamet in all her glory-from her early days growing up in literary and dramatic circles, to her years as a young adult pining for acceptance and love, to her first attempts to make it as an actor, to where she (and Shosh) are now. A gripping, funny, and earnest look at what it means to be a girl in the world and how to define yourself amid the bustle of show business, Does This Make Me Funny? is a captivating debut from a natural-born storyteller.
