Reviews

One man’s “rich and remarkable” (as per the cover blurb) is unfortunately this lady’s “bland and insufferable.” It was short, though, so I persevered when it took all of two hours. Thinking the whole way, who talks like this, who thinks like this, who reminisces like this? It was the Charles Winchester III of books. I prefer the irreverent, the down-to-earth.
