Very enjoyable memoir of Joan Rivers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Joan Rivers autobiography is an entertaining read. I have not finished the book yet (have about less than 100 pages to go), but wanted to urge customers to buy this book. Her life story from Joan Molinsky, to stage name Pepper January (in Boston, when emceeing a strip show), and to her present name Joan Rivers (Rivers was borrowed from an agent she went to see), is a heart-wrenching life story. Moments in the book when her parents tried to discourage her from a stage and comedy career, I felt deeply with the author. But Joan Rivers kept on going. What a woman!! Oh well - I am going to stop writing this review, so I can pick up the book and finish it!! Thank you Joan Rivers.
Extremely honest
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Joan Rivers did a fabulous job with this. She was extremely honest in her descriptions with show business and describes the "business" of it so openly. Her vulnerability and strength are intertwined so vividly.She is funny,honest,intelligent,good-hearted and insecure as most, but brave enough to admit it. I would highly recommend the audiotape and book as well. It is a great tool for anyone dealing with the emotional aspects of show business rejections. Joan Rivers proves that not only has she been a survivor thru tremendous hardships,but that she is indeed a fragile,yet strong human being. The audio makes for great listening for days stuck in traffic jams.
