Beschreibung

As new condition blue boards with silver spine lettering, contained in an as new condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Illustrated with black-and-white cartoon drawings. "Larry King, world-famous radio and television personality, has asked the talented, the beautiful, the wise, and the rich a question all of us have pondered: How would you like to be remembered after your death? The result is Remember Me When I'm Gone, an entertaining and eloquent collection of "last words" from people in the arts, in politics, in sports, and in business, mostly still alive. In telling and moving reflections, often leavened by self-deprecating humor, these celebrities look back on their lives, their ambitions, their mistakes, and their accomplishments. The contributions range from pithy one-liners by Yogi Berra ("It's over."), Dave Barry, George Carlin, and Liz Smith ("Excuse my dust!") to inspired sketches by Stephen King and Peter Falk; from candid reflections from Don Shula, Fred Rogers, and Chevy Chase to hilarious rants from Margaret Cho and Tommy Lee; and finally a last request by Arthur Hailey. Often surprising and always memorable, [the book] is a timeless collection by stars who will live on forever." - from the inner front jacket flap. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 003495
