Bob Odenkirk Is Writing a Book of Personal Essays

Bob Odenkirk is working on a memoir about his life and career. According to The New York Times, Random House will publish Odenkirk’s book, which is described as “a comic exploration†of his life and work on shows like SNL, The Ben Stiller Show, Mr. Show, Better Call Saul, and more. Odenkirk calls the book “a comic ‘bildungsroman,’ if you will — defined by Webster’s Dictionary as ‘a novel about the moral and psychological growth of the main character’ — except this will be more memoir and the main character, Bob Odenkirk (actor, writer, comedian, gadabout), doesn’t grow morally or psychologically.†The book’s title and release date have not yet been announced.
