God, If You're Not Up There... Tales of Stand-up, Saturday Night Live, and Other Mind-Altering Mayhem

A New York Times Bestseller As seen in Netflix''s "Cracked Up: The Darrell Hammond Story", this groundbreaking memoir is a raw look inside the troubled life and mind of an American comic genius. By turns poignant and hilarious, Hammond takes readers from the set of Saturday Night Live , where he was the show''s longest-tenured cast member, to the drug-ridden streets of Harlem and into the twisting corridors of his own unflaggingly humorous consciousness. Mingling behind-the-scenes stories from television''s best-loved comedy series with a dark look inside a world-class funnyman, God If You''re Not Up There, I''m F*cked is a book sure to resonate with anyone who shares a talent for performance, a love of comedy, or a desire to know how an artist can climb from the deepest despair to the very top of his profession.
