My Life as a Villainess

Autor Laura Lippman
en Limba Engleză Hardback – apr 2021
Now, finally, Lippman has turned her gimlet eye on a new subject: herself. My daughter was ten days old the first time I was asked if I were her grandmother. In this, her first collection of essays, Lippman gives us a brilliant, candid portrait of an unapologetically flawed life.

Recenzii

"...compelling and clever self-interrogation." — Los Angeles Times
"Lippman’s revelations about herself and her life are refreshingly candid and imbued with a seriously robust overtone of humor, a double-barreled approach that dovetails nicely with Lippman’s self-description of being 'gleefully honest.'" — Boston Globe
"Candid and quirky, this book will have special appeal to fans of her crime fiction. A wryly observed collection from a reliably good writer." — Kirkus Reviews
"She revels in confession and connection, surprise and provocation, and she performs all with panache, wisdom, wit, and courage. Lippman asserts: “I’m a tough old bird,” and readers will declare: and one helluva true-tale teller." — Booklist
"The essays, some new, some previously published, are overall a delight...Fans of Lippman’s novels (The Lady in the Lake) and her Twitter followers will gobble up this short collection and beg for more nonfiction from this gifted storyteller." — Library Journal
"With its 'gleefully honest' hits of humor and willingness to take a close look at some discomfiting truths, it will come as no surprise to Lippman’s fans that My Life as a Villainess is an engaging read—an intrepid investigation of the author’s inner landscape..." — BookPage
