Help Yourself is a literary fiction book by author Curtis Sittenfeld.
Help Yourself, sheds light on the human experience and gracefully upends our assumptions about class and race, gender envy and frustration, and celebrity.

The suburban friend at odds after a racist encounter at a birthday party was videotaped and posted to Facebook. An illustrious film crew in Manhattan fell victim to their own snobbery when their members underestimated a preschool teacher from the Midwest; and a group of young writers battle love and storytelling as they vie for a prestigious scholarship.
This story is the honest yet ruthless eye of Sittenfeld
as her characters go from awkward to humiliating and with luck they can reconcile. Brimming with tenderness and compassion, this dazzling collection celebrates our humanity in all its pettiness and glory.
