Is It Hot in Here (Or Am I Suffering for All Eternity for the Sins I Committed on Earth)?

From author Zach Zimmerman, this book features a collection of essays and many other writs of comedy that border the line between memoir and fiction in an exploration of himself. It follows the author as he goes from a bible belt carnivore into its antithesis—urban life with atheism, queerness…well almost its antithesis, the religious guilt is still there. The book’s pieces, some of which were originally published in the New Yorker, explore a coming of age in the city in a way that will make readers question whether they might be teared up with empathy, humor, or both.
