After moving to mainland Australia and receiving a degree in art history, they found themselves adrift, working itinerant jobs and enduring years of isolation punctuated by homophobic and sexual violence. When Gadsby was twenty-seven, a friend encouraged them to enter a stand-up competition. They won, and so began their career in comedy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGadsby became well known for their self-disparaging humor, but in 2015, as Australia debated the legality of same-sex marriage, they started to question this mode of storytelling, beginning to work on a show that would transform their career and would become \"the most-talked-about, written-about, shared-about comedy act in years\" (\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHarrowing and hilarious, \u003ci\u003eTen Steps to Nanette\u003c\/i\u003e traces Gadsby's growth as a queer person, their ever-evolving relationship with comedy, and their struggle with late-in-life diagnoses of autism and ADHD, finally arriving at the backbone of \u003ci\u003eNanette: \u003c\/i\u003e the renouncement of self-deprecation, the rejection of misogyny, and the moral significance of truth-telling.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHannah Gadsby\u003c\/b\u003e stopped stand-up comedy in its tracks with their multi-award-winning show \u003ci\u003eNanette\u003c\/i\u003e, which played to sold-out houses in Australia, the UK, and New York. Its launch on Netflix, and subsequent Emmy and Peabody wins, took \u003ci\u003eNanette\u003c\/i\u003e (and Hannah) to the world. Hannah's difficult second album (which was also their eleventh solo show) was named \u003ci\u003eDouglas, \u003c\/i\u003e after their dog. Hannah walked \u003ci\u003eDouglas\u003c\/i\u003e around the world, selling out and scoring another Emmy nomination. Before all of this, Hannah appeared as a character called Hannah in \u003ci\u003ePlease Like Me\u003c\/i\u003e (Hulu) and toured their native Australia and the UK as a stand-up comedian. They made art documentaries and did plenty of other things over the course of more than a decade in comedy, but that will do for now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 400\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 7.9 x 5.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 28, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53464504434995,"sku":"9781984819802","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/0746\/3731\/files\/bV4Aol7cMt9781984819802.webp?v=1781461066","url":"https:\/\/rbangel-store.myshopify.com\/products\/ten-steps-to-nanette-a-memoir-situation-paperback","provider":"The Celestial Starlit Phoenix ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
