Recensione:
The Washington Times A book of good grace and humor -- written in a style that, like the author herself, is straightforward, unembellished, generous, good-hearted, and wise...A pleasure.
Maureen Dowd The New York Times Book Review I always felt a poignancy in her story...wickedly funny.
