A commanding presence on stage and screen for over 40 years, she has been associated with all the major figures of the theatre and film industry. Her reminiscences offer not only an insight into the life and art of one of the greatest actresses of our age, but also a portrait of the theatre and film world. Lauren Bacall appeared in films including "Key Largo", "To Have and Have Not" and "The Big Sleep" with her husband, Humphrey Bogart.

From the Inside Flap:
AND HONEST...A philosophical looking-backward and forward--an inquiry into the question 'Is that all there is?' "
--Liz Smith
New York Newsday
"FRANK AND AMUSING...[AND] BRIMMING WITH CONFESSIONS...Part career memoir and part meditation on what it's like to be a single woman of lingering glamour, enduring vitality and advancing age...The book has the Bacall voice behind it. Her writing echoes her deep, sardonic, no-nonsense timbre and jazzy tempo....Bacall is at her best when talking about friends she has loved and watched die. Bernstein, she says, was more than a little seductive; Huston, more than a little remote; Olivier, a survivor to the end."

"HER PROSE IS SPARE AND HONEST....A kaleidoscope of thoughts and ideas on loneliness, aging, and above all, surviving...There are also poignant reminiscences of the golden years of Hollywood and many of its leading creators."
--The Washington Post Book World
