Publisher's Summary
"Magnificent." (People Magazine)
The instant New York Times best seller: laugh-out-loud, deeply insightful, and emotion-filled essays from multitalented actress, comedian, podcaster, and writer Casey Wilson.
Casey Wilson has a lot on her mind and she isn’t afraid to share. In this dazzling collection, each essay skillfully constructed and brimming with emotion, she shares her thoughts on the joys and vagaries of modern-day womanhood and motherhood, introduces the not-quite-typical family that made her who she is, and persuasively argues that lowbrow pop culture is the perfect lens through which to examine human nature.
Whether she’s extolling the virtues of eating in bed, processing the humiliation over her father’s late in life perm, mourning her mother's passing, or revealing her patented method for keeping the mystery alive in a marriage, Casey is witty, candid, and full of poignant and funny surprises. Humorous dives into her obsessions and areas of personal expertise - self-help, nice guys, cool girls (not her) and how to receive visitors in the bath - are matched by touching meditations on female friendship, anger, grief, motherhood, and identity.
Reading The Wreckage of My Presence is like spending time with a close friend - a deeply passionate, full-tilt, joyous, excessive, compulsive, shameless, hungry-for-it-all, loyal, cheerleading friend. A friend who is ready for any big feelings that come her way - and isn’t afraid to embrace them.

Exactly what I was looking for from Casey!
This is was exactly what I was looking for from Casey. It felt like a warm hug, much like the tragically cancelled show Happy Endings!!

sweet and entertaining
I saw this author on an episode of Jimmy Kimmel and thought this seemed like it would be an entertaining book. I am so glad I experienced this in audio format. The author is so good at this, so well written, and narrated. I am so happy to support her. Thank you!

Nothing likeable here
She thinks spelling centre with an re instead of an error is pretentious. Hello Ugly American. All of Canada, the UK (that's England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland spell it that way. Get over yourself. NOT amusing.
