What They're Saying
Critics Review
“A simply elegant memoir.”—Newsweek
“Compelling and convincing … a story of survival.”—Chicago Tribune
“A beautifully written memoir … about complex people and issues.”—The Atlanta Journal
“A juicy book and a good one.”—Time
“Farrow’s book possesses an elegance of prose and sensibility that elevates it way beyond the typical gorefest of sex, gossip, and betrayal.”—USA Today
“A stellar new memoir … it’s all there, every wondrous, scandalous, inhumanely difficult thing.”—Mirabella
“Mia Farrow tells the story of her fascinating life with uncommon grace and insight.”—William Styron
“Word by word, page by page, we’re convinced. We believe her.”—Newsday
“One of the best writers to ever come out of Hollywood. She writes with extraordinary wit and polish. This is good news for Frank Sinatra, André Previn, and the hundreds of other celebrities who make cameo appearances in her fabulous life, but it is very bad news for Woody Allen.”—Pat Conroy
