It was supposed to be simple: auction off my virginity to Tennyson Fox, get into his house, and find evidence of a murder he committed years ago. He bids on virgins, but doesn’t use them—at least that’s what the Hamiltons told me when I agreed to the job. But what I didn’t count on was my body’s reaction to him or that when he makes me his, I want it to be real. When he teaches me about submission, I want to give him everything. His whips and restraints make me feel more cared for than anything else ever has. Yet, I’m lying to him. And once he finds out I’m afraid, he’ll send me away forever.

Yearbook is a collection of true stories that I desperately hope are just funny at worst, and life-changingly amazing at best. (I understand that it's likely the former, which is a fancy 'book' way of saying 'the first one.') I talk about my grandparents, doing stand-up comedy as a teenager, bar mitzvahs and Jewish summer camp, and tell way more stories about doing drugs than my mother would like. I also talk about some of my adventures in Los Angeles, and surely say things about other famous people that will create a wildly awkward conversation for me at a party one day.

For centuries, civilizations, philosophers, and faith traditions have wrestled with this question—yet in modern life, work is too often dismissed as a burden or a necessary evil.

From the Benedictines’ creed “work is worship”: effort is not punishment, but purpose. Reflections on modern attitudes toward labor, the book makes a compelling case for rediscovering the dignity of toil.
