Description for One More Time: A Memoir (Encore Nonfiction Modern Classics)
Review 'Behind every great comedian lies a story . . . as rich in pathos as it is in humor.' �USA Today�This feels like Edward Albee territory. . . . Surviving and struggling are what this book is about, and what gives it life. . . . Often moving and always honest.� �The Washington Post�A first-rate job of storytelling . . . [Burnett has] the skill of a novelist.� �Chicago Tribune �This isn�t a celebrity bio whose author has found a new milieu in which to perform a star turn. The spirit of its ending is very much like the ending of one of Burnett�s variety TV shows, when she comes out to say good night, and you momentarily sense that you�re not just looking at an entertainer�you�re looking into the face of a human being.� �Los Angeles Times Book Review Read more From the Inside Flap Carol Burnett spent most of her childhood in a Depression-scarred Hollywood neighborhood, where she lived in a single-room apartment with her endearingly batty grandmother, Nanny, a hypochondriacal Christian Scientist with a buried past. The child of two alcoholic parents, Burnett presents a sometimes hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking coming-of-age: from her sadly hopeful mother, who was hooked on Tinseltown fantasy, to the first signs of her own comic gift; from happy weekends spent with her father, to their last tragic meeting in a public sanatorium. Featuring a new Afterword by the author, about teaming up with her daughter to bring this story to Broadway, One More Time is an intimate, touching, and astonishing narrative of a financially desperate but emotionally rich childhood on the wrong side of Hollywood�s tracks.
