“Shukert's sharp comic turns careen smack into the middle of our hearts."
— Los Angeles Times
From performer, playwright, comedian, author and writer and producer of "Glow" and "Superirl" Rachel Shukert, Everything Is Going to Be Great, is a hilarious memoir of traveling through Europe in her twenties. Rachel chronicles her youthful navigation through the haphazard fun and debauchery of new freedoms, and the growing pains that ultimately accompany “adulthood.” Fans of Sloane Crosley and David Sedaris are going to love Shulkert’s story, and her sharp, smart humor.
One underfunded grand tour. A series of hilariously bad decisions.
- Women’s Humor: Written with the sharp, smart voice that would later define her work on shows like Glow and Supergirl.
- Travel Misadventures: From a drunken Bastille Day celebration that ends with a broken nose in a Parisian hospital to a string of terrible jobs and even worse food.
- Self-Deprecating Humor: A painfully funny and unflinchingly honest look at the humiliation and absurdity of navigating "adulthood" for the first time.
- European Travelogue: Follow Rachel through Vienna, Amsterdam, and Zurich as she searches for purpose and finds mostly debauchery and awkward sexual encounters.
