Title: In Pieces Pdf

In this intimate, haunting literary memoir and New York Times Notable Book of the year, an American icon tells her own story for the first time -- about a challenging and lonely childhood, the craft that helped her find her voice, and a powerful emotional legacy that shaped her journey as a daughter and a mother.

One of the most celebrated, beloved, and enduring actors of our time, Sally Field has an infectious charm that has captivated the nation for more than five decades, beginning with her first TV role at the age of seventeen. From Gidget's sweet-faced "girl next door" to the dazzling complexity of Sybil to the Academy Award-worthy ferocity and depth of Norma Rae and Mary Todd Lincoln, Field has stunned audiences time and time again with her artistic range and emotional acuity. Yet there is one character who always remained hidden: the shy and anxious little girl within.

With raw honesty and the fresh, pitch-perfect prose of a natural-born writer, and with all the humility and authenticity her fans have come to expect, Field brings readers behind-the-scenes for not only the highs and lows of her star-studded early career in Hollywood, but deep into the truth of her lifelong relationships--including her complicated love for her own mother. Powerful and unforgettable, In Pieces is an inspiring and important account of life as a woman in the second half of the twentieth century.

I WAS DISAPPOINTED OK let's start off with a frank admission... I don't read books to feel bad. I read for entertainment and when I read about actors it's typically to hear interesting, insightful and often humorous back stories about their work and career.THIS IS NOT THAT TYPE OF BOOK.Ms Fields is a splendid actress obviously had a very challenging childhood. I won't go into details but this book is really about her family and personal problems. She seems to have never had a thought or feeling that she doesn't want to spend copious amounts of time analyzing. I felt like I was sitting in on a session with her shrink. I'm sorry to be so insensive but there has to be a point where you stop dwelling on the past and .... move the hell on. She doesn't seem to celebrate the amazing good fortune she has enjoyed. Just a haze of regret and pain.Anyway, I really wanted to know more about her relationship with Burt Reynolds (of whom she does not paint a pretty picture) and the many fine actors and directors she has been privleged to work with. No mention of Paul Newman or Robin Williams as costars. Not even much about Daniel Day-Lewis. Lots about Mom and Dad and Jocko and... so on.So if you're looking for a good cry this one's for you. If you're looking to feel better later - go elsewhere.Walk a mile in her shoes Never can imagine what people have gone through until you hear their story. I had a horrible childhood,five sister's that got through it too,without them I don't think I could have made it out sane,maybe I haven't! This book opened my eyes to lots of angels to see life's problems,I guess we all have crosses to bare. I want to thank Sally for writing this,so talented but not without problems herself,love her!You're only as sick as the secrets that you keep. Wow! I actually read this engaging, honest and illuminating memoir in one sitting. The brutal honesty and objectivity that Ms Field displays in openly discovering and relating her life-long battle with self-esteem and why she's the person that she is is refreshing and helped me to see some of the same traps I've also fallen into in my own life. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has come from a family that hides it's secrets or where abuse was present. I really admire Ms Field's life-long struggle to become the person she always knew was in there somewhere.
