How appropriate that the girl often credited as the “voice of a generation,” shares her very own voice on NOT THAT KIND OF GIRL. This collection of autobiographical essays by Lena Dunham, already lauded as “always funny” (Judy Blume), and “as smart, honest, sophisticated, dangerous, and charming as her work on Girls” (George Saunders), is a refreshingly intimate listen on audio as read by Dunham herself.
As if anyone else could…
Now a New York Times bestseller!

Behind the recording:
Weird thing about recording an audiobook: part of the reason I wrote a book at all is because there were things I was afraid to say out loud
