BOOK

The funniest, freshest essayist since David Sedaris, Cindy Guidry examines America culture and present-day gender relations in all their confusing, heartbreaking and hilarious glory.

After losing both her job and a potential husband, Cindy sets off to figure out why she’s so happy, and soon must combat an onslaught of unsolicited advice from her mother, her “have it all” friends, a Yoda-like waxing lady, and the guy next door. Making pit stops along the way to ponder everything from the satanic origins of the Internet to her disturbing discovery that men are the new women, Cindy ultimately finds inspiration in her CD collection and renewed hope in a love letter from an Indian gas station attendant.

Cindy Guidry is a self-aware woman with a razor-sharp wit, and in The Last Single Woman in America she takes us on an outrageously funny romp through her own unique mind, uncovering universal truths along the way.

“Wickedly funny. Continuously rib-tickling except for the moments it reminded me that I’m ashamed to be a man.” - PAUL DINELLO, writer and costar, Strangers With Candy

“Like a modern day Dorothy Parker, Cindy Guidry is wickedly observant and outrageously funny. Whether you’re single or married, male or female, you’ll be captivated by Guidry’s rollicking stories and unforgettable characters. And that’s just the start. The Last Single Woman in America is filled with tenderness, truth, power and pain, and one can only hope that this marks the beginning of a long-term relationship with a remarkable new writer.” - BEN SHERWOOD, author of The Death and Life of Charlie St. Cloud and The Man Who Ate the 747
