"Ham is humorous, soul baring, name dropping, and just the right
mix of vulnerability and snarkiness."--Washington Blade
"Ham is a fabulous and funny, tasty treat; sweet and savory with
just right touch of tang."--Broadway World
"Ham is, by turns, harrowing and hilarious, uplifting and
soul-shattering, agonizing and liberating." --Oklahoma Magazine
"Ham is a dishy celebrity memoir combined with profoundly harder
things like 9/11, alcoholism, suicide attempts, coming out,
marriage and parenting. There is as much hilarity in the book--he
knows how to make people laugh, especially at him. He really opens
up, showing us his struggles, and has far deeper dimensions that I
wasn't expecting when I picked up this book. He's clearly added
writing into his stable of talents, and I am hoping folks will give
this book a try." --The Tattered Cover
"Ham is honest and heartbreaking, entertaining and devastating all
at the same time." --The Steadfast Reader
"Ham is a collection of heartfelt, sharply funny memoirs. At a time
when other essayists in the style of David Sedaris and Augusten
Burroughs seem to have scraped the bottom of their autobiographical
barrels, Harris arrives with great observational writing chops and
a deep well of material to draw upon." --Passport Magazine
"Reading singer-actor Harris's essays is like having your smartest
gay BFF propped up on your pillow sipping cosmos, regaling you with
gossip and his keen wit."
--People
"The essays in Ham are both rip-roaringly funny and sentimental,
drawing natural (and justified) comparisons to David Sedaris and
David Rakoff."--Esquire
"This neo-vaudevillian stage persona, Harris has opted to launch
Ham the only way he knows how: extravagantly, theatrically and,
most of all, big...refreshingly self-effacing observations and
playful humor." --The Huffington Post
"With a wry sense of humor, Harris writes about his life through
humorous essays. Touching on everything from parenting to show
business, he dishes on the ups and downs of his life through a
witty lens."
