Sharp, biting, and wickedly funny, Born Worried is a modern chronicle of anxiety, absurdity, and survival in a world that seems determined to test the limits of human patience.

With a voice that’s equal parts neurotic and fearless, Jack Bender takes readers on a rollercoaster through childhood nightmares, adult disasters, and the awkward spaces in between. Whether recounting the comic perils of love and work, or finding uneasy wisdom in the mess of everyday life, Born Worried captures the hilarity of being human when the stakes are both impossibly high and laughably low.

Perfect for fans of David Sedaris, Samantha Irby, and Jenny Lawson, this book reminds us that sometimes the best way to cope is to laugh—loudly and often.
