Nora Ephron returns with her first audiobook since the astounding success of I Feel Bad About My Neck, taking a cool, hard, hilarious look at the past, the present, and the future, bemoaning the vicissitudes of modern life, and recalling with her signature clarity and wisdom everything she hasnât (yet) forgotten.
Ephron writes about falling hard for a way of life (âJournalism: A Love Storyâ) and about breaking up even harder with the men in her life (âThe D Wordâ); lists âTwenty-five Things People Have a Shocking Capacity to Be Surprised by Over and Over Againâ (âThere is no explaining the stock market but people tryâ; âCary Grant was Jewishâ; âMen cheatâ); reveals the alarming evolution, a decade after she wrote and directed Youâve Got Mail, of her relationship with her in-box (âThe Six Stages of E-Mailâ); and asks the age-old question, which came first, the chicken soup or the cold? All the while, she gives candid, edgy voice to everything women who have reached a certain age have been thinking . . . but rarely acknowledging.
Filled with insights and observations that instantly ring trueâand could have come only from Nora EphronâI Remember Nothing is pure joy.
