Omschrijving
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Legendary actress Diane Keaton's memoir about her mother and herself, "as warm, funny, and self-deprecating as Keaton's onscreen persona" (Vogue)--featuring an afterword by Anna Quindlen.
"A far-reaching, heartbreaking, absolutely lucid book about mothers, daughters, childhood, aging, mortality, joyfulness, love, work, and the search for self-knowledge."--The New York Times "This book feels like Diane Keaton. Which means it's lovable."--Entertainment Weekly "Then Again reads like the diary of an ordinary woman who suddenly became a movie star, who doesn't quite believe any of it happened, but it did."--Los Angeles Times ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Janet Maslin, The New York Times; People; Vogue Mom loved adages, quotes, slogans. There were always little reminders pasted on the kitchen wall. For example, the word THINK. I found THINK thumbtacked on a bulletin board in her darkroom. I saw it Scotch-taped on a pencil box she'd collaged. I even found a pamphlet titled THINK on her bedside table. Mom liked to THINK. So begins Diane Keaton's unforgettable memoir about her relationship with her mother, who shaped much of Diane's life. You will meet the woman known to tens of millions as Annie Hall, but you will also meet, and fall in love with, her mother, the loving, complicated, always-thinking Dorothy Hall. To write about herself, Diane realized she had to write about her mother, too, and how their bond came to define both their lives. In a remarkable act of creation, Diane not only reveals herself to us, she also lets us meet in intimate detail her mother. Over the course of her life, Dorothy kept eighty-five journals--literally thousands of pages--in which she wrote about her marriage, her children, her parents, and, most probingly, herself. Diane has sorted through these pages to paint an unflinching portrait of her mother--a woman restless with intellectual and creative energy, struggling to find an outlet for her talents--as well as her entire family, recounting a story that spans four generations and nearly a hundred years. More than the autobiography of an icon of film and style, Then Again is a book about a very American family with very American dreams. Diane will remind you of yourself, and her bonds with her family will remind you of your own relationships with those you love the most.
