I Was Better Last Night is now one of my favorite memoirs of all time. Harvey Fierstein is one of the most talented playwrights of our time and I had no doubt he would deliver a heartfelt, engaging and hilarious recollection of his life. I learned so much about this living legend and really appreciate the insight into the earlier years of his life and career. I highly recommend this memoir to any and all fans of theater history and pop culture. Every single Queer person alive should be required to read I Was Better Last Night.
