'A beautiful book: funny, honest, revealing, heartfelt and moving'
- Adam Kay, bestselling author of This is Going to Hurt' 'Vital,
heartfelt and surprising, these tales from a life are told with
humour, style and intelligence.' - Graham Norton 'A wonderful
memoir by a glorious writer: funny, poignant, profound. I gobbled
it up in one joyous sitting.' - Elizabeth Day 'An absolute jewel of
a book. Gloriously readable, hilarious, painful, acute, sharply
recalled and vividly brought to life' - Stephen Fry A dazzling
'tell-most' memoir: poignant and laugh-out-loud funny scenes from
the life of actor Minnie Driver. I love stories. I have mostly told
other people's but now, in telling my own, I realize how all our
stories are connected by that great leveller of acclaim, loss,
fortitude, and fortune: being human. When I look at my life from
the alleged halfway point, some patterns are revealed: one, that
the story does not necessarily begin or end where it should; two,
happy endings are overrated. And three, happy endings are almost
never the end. This book is memoir-ish. A tell-most. Largely
because there's a lot I don't remember, and a lot that's not worth
talking about. So, this is a collection of stories about how things
not working out - worked out in the end. How reaching for the dream
is easily more interesting, expansive, sad and funny than the dream
itself coming true. I really hope you enjoy it. Love, Minnie x
