?A lively tale of growing up lower-middle-class in Brooklyn; a gossipy account of scrambling up the comedy ladder from tabloid gag writer to Oscar winner . . . This memoir is for the most part a pleasure to read and entertaining company. . . . You?d have to be a real sourpuss not to laugh at the fusillade of one-liners, two-liners, three-liners and so on.??Peter Biskind, Los Angeles Times

?He has an authentic and easygoing voice on the page.??New York Times 
?It?s a fantastic book, so funny. . . . You feel like you?re in the room with him and yeah, it?s just a great book and it?s hard to walk away after reading that book thinking that this guy did anything wrong.??Larry David

?An absolute delight, hilarious and endearing and glistening with stardust.??National Review

?Master, from youth, at self-deprecating humor, and born with New York City cojones, Allen says what others just think, controversy be damned.??New York Journal of Books
 
 ?It was a laugh a minute.??Newark Star-Ledger

"An enjoyable excursion into the mind, personality, and delicious whimsy of Woody Allen . . . one of our finest filmmakers and a man of droll wit, who came of age as an artist in the 1970s, just in time for his unique combination of cynicism and romanticism, as old gods died and new ones failed to appear."?Jim Delmont, Omaha Dispatch
 
?His wit is on full display.??The Federalist
 
?A brisk, vivid, and extremely funny account..??Commentary Magazine
 
?Allen?s style is gossipy and spry.??The Guardian
 
?Brilliant.??Deadline

"If you love Woody Allen, you?ll love the book."?Sam Wasson, Air Mail
