The Last Black Unicorn

by Tiffany Haddish

First published 2017

Tiffany Haddish grew up in one of the poorest neighborhoods of South Central Los Angeles, where she was raised by a single mother who had a tough-love approach to parenting. Tiffany learned to make her mark in a world that didn't always see her value. After a childhood filled with homelessness, violence, and tragedy, Tiffany found her strength through stand-up comedy, which helped her escape the cycle of poverty and dysfunction. In this refreshingly candid and uproariously funny memoir, Tiffany recounts the challenges and triumphs that have shaped her extraordinary life.
