This autobiography did not meet my expectations. In most places it was uninteresting, as Lithgow went over details and incidents of his past which were unimportant to the reader, if not to Lithgow. Detailing the events around the girl who first kissed him is one example of this involvement. He wrote considerably about his father, but not his mother. His fragmented childhood saw hime to move from commujnity to community as his father sought work in the theatre. He was painfully honest about his marital extra-affairs and how that contributed to his divorcing. I wanted to learn more about his many acting roles, but he focused more on his life devoid of the theatre, which did influence his life "dramatically".
