Brian Donovan returns with a hilarious glimpse into yet another struggle
faced by many: losing weight. Chunk follows him along his crazy,
overweight journey, from the chubby 10-year-old who stole brownies and
tricked his parents into thinking he'd lost weight to the teenage boy
who made regular after-school plans to eat entire pies to the adult man
who still hates working out and still loves Cinnabons. It's a bracingly
funny and delightfully uncomfortable collection of essays exploring
food, fitness, and the funny things that happen when we try to slim down
and grow up.
Brian Donovan has written for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, National
Public Radio, and, most recently, ABC's The Neighbors. His work has
also appeared on Chapelle's Show, Funny or Die, and off Broadway in
New York City. His Not a Match: My True Tales of Online Dating
Disasters is currently being developed for television.
