Every artist should read/listen to this book!

Love every minute of this book. As a self taught artist it was like receiving food for the spirit.

A Must Read

Wow! Oil politics 101 explained quite well. No wonder she won the Grammy. We must fight for transparency.

I loved every minute listening to Michelle. We should all be empowering one another as she does

would not read another by this author

Revisado: 10-08-18

Found the story well written and use of language fun but too sexist & racist for me.

This Book Will Make You an Astronaut Fan

Revisado: 05-19-17

This book was a pleasant surprise. I have never been interested the space program, the Hubbell or Astronauts. But as I listened I found myself sitting on the NYC subway smiling and at times crying. This is a great factual success story made better by being read by the author.

Maybe I am Just not Educated

Revisado: 04-07-17

The narrator's dreary voice made listening hard. I kept wondering if a print version would have been a better choice for me. I kept getting distracted and then I would hear "this concludes...' I would have little recall of the story. Some of the writing was quite good but all in all it was not an enjoyable read. But hey he did win a Nobel Prize so am guessing the fault lies in my education.

warning turn back

Revisado: 12-26-16

i haven't longed for a literary suicide this much since I read Anna Karenina. The Jude everyone seems to love so much is not written. There are great passages but they are all peopled by whiney clueless people. They all have success in the world but are overemotional in life. The medical issues could have used more research. Jude's success seems unlikely. His adoption seems unlikely. In the end I begged for it to end but I still had 2 hours to go. Ugh!

Sexist Classic

Revisado: 05-28-16

Detective novels are not my genre. This one is a classic but it is dated and Sexist. Phillip Marlow slaps and kisses every woman he meets. Guess the Sexist approach was okay back in the day. I disliked the first person narrator. Made me realize why this is not my genre.

Beautiful romantic historic

Revisado: 08-14-15

I have never thought much about Patti Smith or Robert Mapllethorp. Now I am grieving that I did not seek them out. Never went to CBGBS even though I was right here in NYC. Now I love them both. Thank you Patti for a great gift of this book. Turns out my daughter hung out with Jackson in Washington Sq when they were just kids
