Dust jacket reads: Lauren Bacall-role model and romantic heroine movie star of five decades, two-time Tony Award-winning actress, a woman whose celebrity and glamour only increase with time. In her best-selling first book she told us the story of her remarkable journey from Brooklyn girlhood to Hollywood and Broadway stardom. In this, her spirited, straightforward, exhilarating new book she shares her experience of life. This is the Bacall we have all come to admire-smart, funny, wise-talking to us openly, candidly. About work, its importance, its usefulness to her through the ups and downs and ups again of her career, its place in her life as a young bride, as a young mother, and today. About romance, about marriage, about loneliness .. About long friendships (and how they evolved over time) with Laurence Olivier, Slim Keith, John Huston, and Leonard Bernstein. She talks about the driving impulse to make a perfect home. about the marriages of children, about being a daughter, a mother, a grandmother. About being restless, about letting go-of possessions, of expectations. About new beginnings (necessary or surprising or joyous) over the years-and now. Reading her book is like talking to a savvy best friend who has lived deeply and is frank (and funny) about what she has seen, what she has done, and what she has learned. ----------
