5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable, August 15, 2008

This review is from: The way I was (Hardcover)
A very enjoyable read. I devoured it in one sitting, as it speeds along in a no-nonsence fashion. Mr. Hamlisch is candid but gentle in his critique of his career and life. As an A CHORUS LINE fan i particularly loved his diary extracts from 1974 on the creation of this show (the only part of the book that involves a diary.) You only don't have to agree with him about his assertions of his musical JEAN to enjoy his observations. My only cavil being that the final chapters about his love-life are a little bit sugary.
If only he had updated this book with his recent endeavours as this book was published in 1992.
A good read!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read, May 19, 2010

This review is from: The way I was (Hardcover)
Hysterically funny and very honest, this book is a must read. Very interesting and amusing stories how music and shows were born. Great anecdotes on so many show business people including Neil Simon, Liza Minelli and so many more. I did not find one page of this book dull or boring. All aspects of his life and that of his parents were a wonderful read. I highly recommend this book.
