‘I ask my therapist why should I want to grow / she says I will suffer less / what is she trying to prove?’
Tragicomic verses from the award-winning comedian and millennial renaissance woman.
Catherine Cohen, the one-woman stand-up chanteuse who has electrified the downtown NYC comedy scene in her white go-go boots, has been posting poignant, unfiltered poems on social media since before Instagram was a thing. A self-proclaimed self-obsessed millennial on the prowl with her beaded bag, she ponders guys who call you dude after sex, English-major dreams, true love during the pandemic, and other weighty matters in these captivating short lyrics. 'I wish I were smart instead of on my phone,' Cohen confides; 'heartbreak, / when it comes, and it will come / is always new.'
A Dorothy Parker for our time, a Starbucks philosophe with no primary-care doctor, this poet and rising megastar is a welcome new breed of everywoman – a larger-than-life best friend, who will say all the outrageous things we think but never say out loud ourselves.
'Cat’s poems are equally hilarious as they are profound. Her lines morph from being quite absurd to deeply meaningful, a trick only she can master. A genre-defining original!' Amelia Dimoldenberg
‘Catherine is a once-in-a-generation comic genius who makes the cringey perils of modern life seem both glamorous and survivable! She also looks amazing in white boots.’ Jack Rooke, creator of Big Boys
‘Does anyone chronicle and lampoon millennial ennui as hilariously, as vulnerably, and as bitingly as Cat Cohen? NFW TBH. I’m a stan!’ Alan Cumming, author of Not My Father’s Son
