Tina Fey’s Bossypants meets David Carr’s The Night of the Gun in Darrell Hammond’s groundbreaking memoir, God, If You’re Not Up There, I’m F*cked — a raw look inside the troubled life and mind of an American comic genius. By turns poignant and hilarious, Hammond takes readers from the set of Saturday Night Live, where he was the show’s longest-tenured cast member, to the drug-ridden streets of Harlem and into the twisting corridors of his own unflaggingly humorous consciousness.
I’ll admit I’m intrigued by the cover and publisher-supplied synopsis of Darrell Hammond’s upcoming book, God, If You’re Not Up There, I’m F*cked: Tales of Stand-Up, Saturday Night Live, and Other Mind-Altering Mayhem:Finally, the world will have the answer to the question “exactly how much coke was Darrell Hammond on when he played Sean Connery in those Celebrity Jeopardy sketches?”
