Historia
“What am I, bologna?” Mary Rodgers (1931-2014) often said. She was referring to being stuck in the middle of a talent sandwich: the daughter of one composer and the mother of another. And not just any composers. Her father was Richard Rodgers, perhaps the greatest American melodist; her son, Adam Guettel, a worthy successor. What that leaves out is Mary herself, also a composer, whose musical Once Upon a Mattress remains one of the rare revivable Broadway hits written by a woman. Shy is the story of how it all happened.

Unvarnished perception
Revisado: 08-30-24
I enjoyed it because it was full of the tales of theatrical people I was familiar with. Shockingly direct and very unvarnished opinions of a direct lady who was obviously so painfully direct and honest. Wish I had known her.

Historia
The epitome of grace, independence, and wit, Lauren Bacall continues to astound generations with her audacious spirit and on-screen excellence. Together with Humphrey Bogart, she produced some of the most electric scenes in movie history, and their romance on and off screen made them Hollywood's most celebrated couple.

Last hour was very sad, as she paid homage to her many dead and dying friends, mostly well-known and very familiar.

Historia
Barbra Streisand is by any account a living legend, a woman who in a career spanning six decades has excelled in every area of entertainment. She is among the handful of EGOT winners (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony) and has one of the greatest and most recognizable voices in the history of popular music. She has been nominated for a Grammy 46 times, and with Yentl she became the first woman to write, produce, direct, and star in a major motion picture. In My Name Is Barbra, she tells her own story about her life and extraordinary career.

Barbra the Very Best
Revisado: 12-26-23
I enjoyed this so very much and appreciated her honesty and straightforward add-libs. It was long and worth the challenge of those precious hours of just Barbra and me. I am 10 years older than she is, but she brought back so much of my past, as my father was in the movie business. Thank you, dear Barbra.

Historia
It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would play out from that point on.

Beautifully written by a surprisingly open and honest young man of unquestionable integrity and character. Royals should be exceedingly proud of Prince Harry.

Historia
How did a boy from small-town New York become the world’s most successful writer? How does he do it? He has always wanted to write the kind of novel that would be read and reread so many times that the binding breaks and the book literally falls apart. As he says, “I’m still working on that one.”

I knew I’d find it interesting, but it was really beyond my expectations. I was afraid his voice would be hard to take for all of those hours of listening, but, I adjusted, just like his wife had to!
Seriously, it was a pleasure and very entertaining. Thank you, James.

Amazing story of survival
Revisado: 06-19-22
The writing was painful to listen to,
Ms. Davis’s proof of survival and fabulous accomplishments is truly amazing. I believe she deserves every happiness that God can give her. She is pure joy for us all to enjoy.
Thank you, Viola Davis!

Historia
In vivid and graceful prose, Lucette Lagnado recreates the majesty and cosmopolitan glamour of Cairo in the years before Gamal Abdel Nasser’s rise to power. With Nasser’s nationalization of Egyptian industry, her father, Leon, a boulevardier who conducted business in his white sharkskin suit, loses everything and departs with the family for any land that will take them. The poverty and hardships they encounter in their flight from Cairo to Paris to New York are strikingly juxtaposed against the beauty and comforts of the lives they left behind.

I read this novel several years ago from Kindle. It had stayed in my mind and when I found out it was available on Audible, I wanted to repeat it. So much more touching and emotional this time. I shall hold on to it, and listen again sometime. I am 89.

Historia
Paul was reading a newspaper. Catherine was reading a novel. So begins Room on the Sea, André Aciman's scorching and elegiac love-story about a middle-aged man and woman who meet in the bullpen of jury selection and spend a sultry summer’s week trespassing ever further into each other's hearts. What begins as a flirtation quickly evolves into something deeper, something Paul and Catherine must carry on in secret - and with the understanding that anything more than a casual crush is out of the question.

It made me revive my own life’s story and deep feeling for the almost forgotten past. It’s a sweet sadness that probably lies within all of us, if we can conjure up the language to express it. I’m nearly 90.

I saw her on the Jimmy Kimmel late night show. Just listening to her talk, I knew I had to get the book, which I did that night. I have listened to the entire book in two days and loved it. I feel like I know her. She reads her words so beautifully. It was a great listening experience. Needless to say, I loved it.

Historia
This lush novel, set in 1766 England and America, evokes an era ripe with riot and revolution, from the teeming streets of London to the sprawling grounds of a Virginia plantation. Mack McAsh burns with the desire to escape his life of slavery in Scottish coal mines while Lizzie Hallim is desperate to shed a life of sheltered subjugation to her spineless husband. United in America, their only chance for freedom lies beyond the Western frontier - if they're brave enough to take it.

I enjoyed the international plot line, especially to the descriptions in Virginia, where I live now. It made it seem familiar to places I have traveled.
