Memoir of Crystal's childhood growing up on Long Island. Entertaining and a fast read - I read it in a day.

Great book! I felt like I was listening to Billy instead of reading his words. I could hear his intonation, his voice was in my head during the entire reading (one day)! And how profound to put your time with your father in perspective with Sundays. That was the only day the whole family spent together-a time they SHARED each other. My favorite passage was when Billy stated, "Time is a bastard. When you're sad there's too much of it, and when you're happy, there's not enough." This story reminds all of us of how precious time is and how we must not waste it. We only have a limited number of Sundays.

This was an excellent book by Billy Crystal. If you have ever seen any performace by him, you will hear his voice and mannerisms come through in his writing! This is a touching story of his family memories, specifically spending Sundays with his father.
