I had hoped to gain some insight to the person who played one of my favorite characters in "Steel Magnolias", and I guess I did. I kept asking myself throughout the book if it was just me being too nitpicky, or was it the Greek heritage in her, or was it the overly dramatic actress in Olympia Dukakis that made her seem so selfish and self-absorbed. I really liked the first chapter, but it all seemed to go downhill from there. She seems completely enamored with herself, her feelings, her work, and...well, herself. I had to make myself listen to the final CD in this book because I was just worn out by that time. Surely, surely I've read too much into this and missed the mark somehow. I'm really hoping that's the case.
