Summary

An uproarious memoir/tongue-in-cheek guide to leaving the cool city in which you 'found' yourself and moving somewhere far more ordinary. So you escaped whatever humdrum little town you grew up in and moved to The Big City. Suddenly, there was amazing stuff everywhere you turned: Ethiopian food! A movie theater that played documentaries! A hairstylist who knew what to do with frizz! But then you got a job offer you couldn't refuse. Or you developed asthma. Or you got pregnant. Or you got pregnant for the second time. And you decided you had to leave. Erin Clune regales readers with priceless stories of her own experiences leaving New York for her hometown in Wisconsin, and provides a jocular but useful guide for anyone leaving - or thinking about leaving, their own personal mecca - to finding contentment while staying true to yourself in a place far, far away from The City.
