My Heart Is an Idiot: Essays de Davy Rothbart
4/5
First short story definitely the strongest in this collection. I'd be curious to read more from Rothbart; some of these feel like they suffer from his immaturity as a writer more than any actual faults. He's talented at getting that midwestern mood.
I think everyone can relate to at least one of the stories included here. They're all funny and read as of you're right there when they happened.
Reading Davy Rothbart's essays is like hearing from a good buddy who lives life with more adventure (and alcohol) and feels with more emotion and who always has a story to tell. His essays range from sweet ("Bigger and Deafer", about his mom) to ridiculous ("Naked in New York") to revelatory ("Tessa") to heavy ("The Strongest Man in the World").
