Since 2002, David Nadelberg has tapped that vast wellspring of adolescent anguish in the stage show \u003ci\u003eMortified\u003c\/i\u003e, in which grown men and women confront their past with firsthand tales of their first kiss, first puff, worst prom, fights with mom, life at bible camp, worst hand job, best mall job, and reasons they deserved to marry Simon LeBon. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Following the same formula that has made the live show a beloved cult hit, \u003ci\u003eMortified\u003c\/i\u003e the book takes real childhood journals and documents and edits the entries into captivating, comedic, and cathartic stories, introduced by their now older (and allegedly wiser) authors. From letters begging rescue from a hellish summer camp to catty locker notes about stuck-up classmates to obsessive love that borders on stalking, \u003ci\u003eMortified\u003c\/i\u003e gives voice to the real -- and really pathetic -- hopes, fears, desires, and creative urgings that have united adolescents for generations.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 416\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.05 x 8.28 x 5.56 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 28, 2006\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51759154299168,"sku":"9781416928072","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/f0b12038cd8056d9089509382b7b0a82.webp?v=1780143671","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/mortified-real-words-real-people-real-pathetic-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
