Category: Humor
Tags: Humor, Autobiography & Biographies, Adults
If youre an Indo-Muslim-British-American actor who has spent more time in bars than mosques over the past few decades, turns out its a little tough to explain who you are or where you are from. In No Lands Man Aasif Mandvi explores this and other conundrums through stories about his family, ambition, desire, and culture that range from dealing with his brunch-obsessed father, to being a high-school-age Michael Jackson impersonator, to joining a Bible study group in order to seduce a nice Christian girl, to improbably becoming Americas favorite Muslim/Indian/Arab/Brown/Doctor correspondent on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart., This is a book filled with passion, discovery, and humor. Mandvi hilariously and poignantly describes a journey that will resonate with anyone who has had to navigate his or her way in the murky space between lands. Or anyone who really loves brunch.
