Tiffany Haddish’s next book will be in part a story of laughing through the tears.
Amistad, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers, announced Friday that Haddish’s essay collection ‘I Curse You With Joy’ is scheduled for November 29.
“‘I Curse You With Joy’ includes stories of how Haddish uses comedy to metabolize pain and turn it into art, auditioning for ‘Saturday Night Live’ before being the first Black female comic to host it, how the trauma in her own life has made her more compassionate, and her complicated relationship with her father, whom she reunited with after 20,” Amistad’s announcement reads in part.

“After my first book, I knew I wanted to share more of myself in ‘I Curse You With Joy,’” Haddish said in a statement. “I want to bring readers on a journey with me that is hahahas and highs and lows, so people know even through the hurt you can spread joy.”
