I adored Gilda Radner and was so saddened by her death. This is her story not only about her struggle with ovarian cancer, but also her marriage to Gene Wilder and some of her career triumphs. It's as sad as you would expect, since her struggle was very tough to read about. While she was very brave, her vulnerability came through too. As a big fan, it was nice to get to know a bit more about her life.
Wow, what a powerful book, especially now, so many years after she has passed away. I got the chills reading this memoir and oh, how I laughed and cried. Gilda was so brave and so darned funny, even in the face of such deperate odds. She died shortly after the book's completion. Thankfully, cancer treatments are not nearly as horrific as Gilda's and the diagnosis of ovarian cancer can be made much more quickly. Still, it makes one aware of the fragility of life and what is truly important. God Bless you, Roseanne Roseannadanna!
this was a good book but so sad she went through so much i give it 5 stars
