Funny and over the top as always. There should be a physical copy of this book for sale because I could absolutely see it paired with a bottle of the White Girl wine. Totally smart idea by the way, release a book about working at a winery after releasing your own wine. Very clever. Anyway, this book was short but it was a good palate cleanser. I just finished a really heavy book and I wanted light and fun. You can always count on Babe to be entertaining.

Babe Walker. Babe Walker lives and very occasionally works in L. You can find her on Twitter whitegrlproblem.
Books by Babe Walker. You love to hate him, but you kind of see yourself in him, because he does everything that you wish you could do. Those kinds of characters are straightforward about all the things you wish that you could be honest about.
It just gives people permission, in a way. TC: David and I are drawn to characters who you relate to most in the moments that are the most cringeworthy. AVC: Babe Walker is described as a bit of a physically idealized woman. She dresses well. DC: I will have to say, we are pretty careful about how we describe what she looks like, and we want her to be able to be whoever you think she is.
Most people just think they know what she looks like based on her lifestyle. TC: Right. Or that we need to stop eating. Everyone sees Babe differently. The one thing that I find funny is that Babe is not blond in the book.
She has a blond moment when she dyes her hair lighter. You create all these assumptions based on the way someone speaks and what they say and eat and the way they exercise and where they live.
You create this caricature in your mind. To your question, I think there are all these assumptions made about who Babe is. The only real image of Babe is her self-portrait when she is in front of a mirror. So I think there is an assumption about who she is and what she looks like. Even Tanner and I have different versions of what she looks like.
TC: I think people aspire to some of her lifestyle. She has funky crazy friends that she has intense relationships with, and there is this drama about her that satisfies that itch that reality stars satisfy. I think people like that.
People like to imagine themselves in those situations. We try to use Babe as an example of the most extreme way someone could react to these pretty universal situations. She says whatever the fuck she wants, and we all want to do that sometimes.
Or should she be? DC: We had sold a lot of copies of the books, and it was definitely a success story. How far can we take it? We live in New York. We thought that was interesting. TC: A big through-line for us is that we like to tell stories. AVC: What do you think is going to happen in the future with Babe? The third book, American Babe , [is out now], and the Lionsgate movie is moving forward to the next step, so we should have an answer and all that in the coming months about when that will start shooting.
So for the time being, and with the launch of Babe, and the story behind that, we felt like Babe Walker is alive and well.
