Description

Humor writer Wendi Aarons, whose work appears frequently in The New Yorker and McSweeney's, joins Zibby to discuss her hysterical, honest, and moving new memoir I’m Wearing Tunics Now: On Growing Older, Better, and a Hell of a Lot Louder. Wendi talks about her witty and unique clothes-themed essays, explaining how each article of clothing (from chunky heels to maternity pants to cooling cloths) connected meaningfully to an important time in her life. The two also discuss motherhood, aging, weight gain, and self-acceptance (which are all so rarely discussed in books). Finally, Wendi shares the origins of her writing career (it all started with a satiric piece about maxi pads!) and what is currently on her TBR list.Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3H0RMSYSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.
