All about Me!: My Remarkable Life in Show Business by Mel Brooks

5.0

What an absolutely delightful listen! Brooks breezes through his life and career with all the charm and humor he has always shown. He is a natural born storyteller, and listening to him narrate is a wonderful experience. He seems to have valued every experience, always finding the positive side. He is by no means humble in his accomplishments, but neither is he arrogant. He is just immensely successful and is matter-of-fact about it, while also acknowledging that he did not act alone. This is not a gossip book; he has nothing but praise for his friends and collaborators, taking pain to mention most of them by name. It is a big book (15 hours on audio), but it was never a drag.
