'Home Work is written with a warm heart and a generous spirit ...
an honest attempt to make sense of an often chaotic life' SUNDAY
EPXRESS 'The book is filled with that most distinctive of all her
qualities: her voice ... Mary Poppins may appear only briefly here,
but her spirit is alive and well' THE TIMES In this follow-up to
her critically acclaimed and bestselling memoir Home, the
enchanting Julie Andrews picks up her story with her arrival in
Hollywood, sharing the career highlights, personal experiences and
reflections behind her astonishing career, including such classics
as Mary Poppins, The Sound of Music, Victor/Victoria and many
others. In Home, Julie Andrews recounted her difficult childhood
and her emergence as an acclaimed singer and performer on the
stage. In her new memoir, Julie picks up the story with her arrival
in Hollywood and her astonishing rise to fame as two of her early
films -Mary Poppins and The Sound of Music- brought her instant and
enormous success, including an Oscar. It was the beginning of a
career that would make Julie Andrews an icon to millions the world
over. In Home Work, Julie describes her years in Hollywood - from
the incredible highs to the challenging lows. Not only does she
detail her work in now-classic films and her collaborations with
giants of cinema and television; she also unveils her personal
story of adjusting to a new and often daunting world, dealing with
the demands of unimaginable success, being a new mother, moving on
from her first marriage, embracing two stepchildren, adopting two
more children, and falling in love with the brilliant and mercurial
Blake Edwards. The pair worked together in numerous films,
culminating in Victor/Victoria, the gender-bending comedy that
garnered multiple Oscar nominations. Told with her trademark charm
and candour, Julie Andrews takes us on a rare and intimate journey
into an astonishing life that is funny, heartbreaking and
inspiring.
