Managing Expectations

Angebote / Angebote:

In her intimate, beautifully-crafted debut collection, Managing Expectations, Driver writes with disarming candor about her upbringing between England and Barbados, her post-university travails and triumphs—from being the only student in her acting school not taken on by an agent to being discovered at a rave in a muddy field in the English countryside, shooting to fame in one of the most influential films of the 1990s and being nominated for an Academy Award, and finding the true light of her life, her son. She chronicles her unconventional career path, including the time she gave up on acting to sell jeans in Uruguay, her journey as a single parent, her deep and mesmerizing appreciation for the ocean, and the heartbreaking loss of her mother.Like Lena Dunham in Not That Kind of Girl, Gabrielle Union in We're Going to Need More Wine, and Patti Smith in Just Kids, Driver writes with razor-sharp humor and grace as she explores navigating the depths of failure, fighting for success, discovering the unmatched wonder and challenge of motherhood, and wading through immeasurable grief. Effortlessly charming, deeply funny, personal, and honest, Managing Expectations reminds us of the way life works out—even when it doesn't.
