Our take
AI-draftedEnding in 1980, before the film career that made her a second kind of star, this first volume is deliberately narrow: childhood poverty, her mother's instability, meeting Sonny Bono as a teenager, and the slow construction of a public persona out of very little private security. Reviewers noted the memoir is unusually candid for a celebrity book of this scale.
In the press
“Utterly candid.”
