About this listen

Best Spoken Word Grammy Award nominee!

From stand-up comedian and actress Tiffany Haddish comes The Last Black Unicorn, a hilarious, edgy, and heart-wrenching collection of autobiographical essays that will leave you laughing through tears.

Tiffany Haddish grew up in one of the poorest parts of South Central Los Angeles. Her mother wound up with a debilitating brain injury after surviving a car accident. Tiffany never fit in anywhere: not in the households she rotated through in the foster care system and certainly not at the nearly all white high school she had to ride the bus an hour to attend. As an illiterate ninth grader, Tiffany did everything she could to survive. After a multitude of jobs, she finally realized that she had talent in an area she never would have suspected: comedy. Tiffany faced the 'routine' hindrances of climbing the entertainment business ladder - but had the added obstacles of sex, race, and class in her way. But she got there. She's humble, grateful, down to earth, and funny as hell. She still cleans the toilet the way she was shown by a foster mom who worked as a maid, and she still rolls her joints the way one of her foster dads taught her.

Tiffany can't avoid being funny: It's just who she is. But The Last Black Unicorn is so much more than a side-splittingly hilarious collection of essays - it's a memoir of the struggles of one woman who came from nothing and nowhere. A woman who was able to achieve her dreams by reveling in her pain and awkwardness, showing the world who she really is, and inspiring others through the power of laughter.

Featured Article: The Best Memoirs to Make You Laugh, Cry, and Think


The memoir, as an art form, is one of the most difficult and complex to pull off. That’s why these titles are so impressive: not only are they excellent works in their own right, but they’ve achieved cultural acclaim, resonating with listeners of different ages, genders, races, religions, and identities. Often narrated by the authors themselves, these audiobooks allow listeners to be immersed in each story and feel all of the raw and unfiltered emotion that comes with them.

I liked how open she was with it and not hold back on anything really. I did find it was all over the place but I was still entertained. Clearly for this book you can see how she thinks and what goes on in her head. I must say, I get it. Definitely a good listen.

I liked it!

Tiffany jumps around a bit and having the book read in her voice I thought would be irritating but, I wouldn't hv it any other way!! She is honest and raw. it's always refreshing to know that most people have their own shut to deal with, and it's funny how she feels with hers.

Haddish is Hilarious!!

Would you consider the audio edition of The Last Black Unicorn to be better than the print version?

Absolutely. Tiffany Haddish wrote it, and who better to read it?

What other book might you compare The Last Black Unicorn to and why?

This book is in the vein of BossyPants, by Tina Fey, The Bedwetter, by Sarah Silverman, and Girl with the Lower Back Tattoo, by Amy Schumer.

Have you listened to any of Tiffany Haddish’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me laugh, and I admired Tiffany's honest and open self examination. It would be hard to write in a manner so revealing.

Hilarious, honest, and warm-hearted
