Hey Mom: Stories for My Mother, But You Can Read Them Too

With wry wit and poignant humor, Louie Anderson, New York Times bestselling author and Emmy Awardâ€“winning comedian currently starring in Zach Galifianakisâ€™s Baskets, shares his journey of turning lifeâ€™s challenges into joy, as well as plenty of wisdom heâ€™s still discovering from his late mother.

Louie Anderson has channeled his beloved mom in his stand-up routine for decades, but she died before seeing him reach his greatest heights, culminating in his breakout TV role as Christine Baskets, the mesmerizing character inspired by his mom, Ora Zella Anderson. This book is Louieâ€™s way of catching her up on his triumphs, disappointments, and continuing challenges. There is heartache, but also great hope. There are alsoâ€”given Louieâ€™s inimitable voiceâ€”laugh-out-loud stories and observations on lifeâ€™s absurdities, the kind only he could make.

â€œI started out writing these letters to my mom, but a few friends said I should write a book. I said okay because next to â€˜weâ€™ll see,â€™ â€˜okayâ€™ is as non-committal as you can get. But somehow I stuck with it. I hope you like it. I hope that after you read it, youâ€™ll write or call your own momâ€”and dad, sister, brother, cousin, nephew. Or have lunch with them. Or breakfast. It doesnâ€™t have to be lunch. But do it now. Donâ€™t wait like I did.â€ â€”Louie
