II.)
Love, Lucy
By Lucille Ball
|
From the Publisher
Although Lucille
Ball died in 1989, this autobiography written prior to 1964 has only
recently been discovered among her papers. Raised by her grandparents, Ball
craved attention and developed a tempestuous, vivacious, fiery, and yet insecure
personality that would later lead her to comic stardom. It took years of
working from the bottom of show business before she became a television
hit, with the help of her husband, co-star, and business partner, former
Cuban bandleader Desi Arnaz.
Ball abandoned the book for fear of hurting Arnaz, although she gives him credit for the tremendous success she
enjoyed with "I Love Lucy."
Reader Reviews:
This is another amazing book. One thing that I really liked
was the fact that we get to see things as Lucille Ball saw them. The only
thing I would keep in mind is that Ball deliberately omits certain “juicy”
details so as not to offend anyone. As long as you take some of it with a
grain of salt, you’ll love it! – Webmaster.
