Based on a True Story: A Memoir

“I always told the truth. Even when I lied.” — Norm Macdonald... probably.

This isn’t your typical celebrity memoir. It’s not a highlight reel. It’s more like a fever dream. One that’s equal parts hilarious, chaotic, and strangely wise. Norm Macdonald doesn’t just tell stories—he unravels them, folds them into riddles, and leaves you laughing so hard you forget to care what’s real.

And that’s the point.

Norm's comedy was all about misdirection. He'd set up a simple joke and lead you somewhere completely bizarre—and brilliant. That same logic applies here. Based on a True Story reads like a memoir wrapped in stand-up, disguised as a novel, dipped in fiction, and sprinkled with uncomfortable truth. It’s weird. It’s raw. It’s Norm at his purest.

What you’ll actually get from this book:
✅ A surreal ride through Norm’s life (real or not)
✅ Stories about gambling, SNL, and fake horses
✅ Gut-punch moments hidden in absurd humor
✅ A rare, behind-the-curtain look at a genius who didn’t care for the spotlight

This book gives more than laughs—it gives perspective. Especially for anyone who’s ever struggled with identity, addiction, or finding truth in chaos. There’s meaning here, buried under the jokes.
