Sutton's biography is an incredible and incredibly honest book by a celebrity Public Relations man who is incredible and incredibly honest himself. It is written in a post-modern style--in other words, some chapters are several pages long and cover many thoughts, others are half a page and cover maybe one person, idea or moment in time. So you never know what to expect--except for honesty in every word written by a fine, reborn human being indeed. Sutton has held the hands of his children through a painful divorce and guided the careers of some of Hollywood's elite, but in his battle with severe depression he had to depend upon his two sons, his siblings, his friend-of-an-ex-wife, and the superstar clients and now friends as well as old teachers and employers, meditation techniques, sports and the kindness of strangers. This book resonates well with this old college professor and university PR man who, like Sutton, refuses to sell his soul to the devil in order to do my jobs. One of the best books in years. I hope to get the author to autograph it someday.
