Though Sandy Dennis left a stunning legacy in theater and film that garnered one Academy Award and two Tony awards, her gift for writing was known only by a few close friends until after her death. Sandy Dennis's remarkable memoir reflects a true poet's soul in the face of life and death. Touching lightly on the theater and glamour, she instead spins highly personal tales from her childhood and her adult life, with moments that move from laughter to tears. Her memories reveal a tender, vulnerable and brave woman unfazed by the adoration of the world or the illness that finally took her life. As she reminisces about her love for a man; her life with friends, family, and cats; and her childhood in the Midwest, her clear voice offers a true gift of love and quiet valor.
