Peluffo grew up in San Bruno, California, moved east for a master's at Pratt Institute in photography and video performance art, and has been in Brooklyn for close to two decades. She first came across the book in a humor writing class where the infamous "Garfield chapter" was on the syllabus. Reading it sent her down an Eisenberg rabbit hole, and, she says, is what convinced her she could do stand-up herself.  The two are now friends. The book is a collection of short stories tracing Eisenberg's sexual and romantic history in the years before she chose monogamy. Conversation covers the density of jokes on every page ("this is a stand-up's book"), the vulnerability of admitting the things most people would leave out, and the shame women carry around sex \u2014 which Peluffo says the book helped her put down. Along the way: losing her virginity three times, the ex who got arrested for taking upskirt photos on the train, boyfriends who lived in a van and a storage unit, and one guy who, after they'd hooked up, panicked that her vintage cameras had been recording him. Peluffo's stand-up special Prosciutto Rose is available now here: https:\/\/youtu.be\/8M5HKgLyjcI?si=B4g5nFgDbGLTXVbc #booksthatchangedmylife #books #library #bookrecs #bookreport #interview #podcast #chrisbulldogcollins \ud83d\udea8 Grab the coolest book & library tees, socks, hoodies & more! https:\/\/booksthatchangedmylife.org\/collections\/all ","author_name":"Books That Changed My Life","author_url":"https:\/\/www.booksthatchangedmylife.org","html":"
