Jen Kirkman is one of the most exciting comics on the US scene and author of the bestselling book, I Can Barely Take Care of Myself – a memoir about her choice to remain childless. Kirkman talks about a loving divorce, being bad at marriage but good at living alone, why she would be a terrible mother and the realities of a sex life at 40. She returns to Melbourne after appearing in Headliners at the 2014 Melbourne Comedy Festival – smart, sassy and often scathing, with a rock star look and the attitude to match, Melbourne gets a new chance to laugh along with her.
