Author:Cybill Shepherd
If you only ever buy one Hollywood autobiography make it this one. Sassy, shocking, funny and totally revealing this is Cybill Shepherd's unexpurgated life-story, told with the wit and honesty you'd expect from the star that's seen it all and knows it all. She has been 57 kinds of disobedient and she has never held back from doing or saying what she wants. Cybill Disobedience is a limit-breaking, open-top car ride down Hollywood's Hall of Fame. From top model to movie siren, sex with Elvis to Bruce Willis's appeal, The Last Picture Show to Taxi Driver, the Cybill disaster and the Moonlighting phenomenon, it's all in here; every boyfriend, every affair, every good film and bad film. But most of all it's about a strong woman's determination to survive. The whole shebang - from Hollywood's mouthiest queen.
The best band in the history of the universe
—— George HarrisonA fine meditation on the Canadians who mythologised America
—— EsquireIt is the great virtue of Across the Great Divide that Hoskyns has managed to make the less glamorous business of being a band come so alive. The attention to fluctuations in group chemistry and morale, on stage and in the studio, is steeped in the author's engaging fascination with the minutiae of how rock music gets made. It makes for a surprisingly refreshing and admirable read
—— Robert Sandall , Sunday TimesBarney Hoskyns clearly relishes his task. Indulging in the same colloquialisms as his subjects one moment, passing critically astute judgements the next, he takes us from sleazy one-nighters backing up Ronnie Hawkins to high-rolling one-nighters firing up Bob Dylan, and beyond
—— Bobby Surf , NMEImpeccably researched and elegantly written
—— Charlie Gillet, author of The Sound of the City
