The book is a raucous collection of true-life experiences of actress and comedian Chelsea Handler. She recalls her time spent in the social trenches with that wild, strange, irresistible and often satisfying beast; the one-night stand. From her short fling with a Vegas stripper to her even shorter dalliance with a well-endowed little person, from her uncomfortable tryst with a cruise ship performer to her misguided rebound with a man who likes to play leather dress-up, Chelsea recalls the highs and lows of her one-night stands with hilarious honesty, revealing precious bits of casual sex wisdom along the way. MY HORIZONTAL LIFE is one guilty pleasure you won t be ashamed to talk about in the morning.
