I Remember Nothing

And Other Reflections

De: Nora Ephron

Narrado por: Nora Ephron

Duración: 3 h y 7 m

Resumen del Editor

Nora Ephron returns with her first book since the astounding success of I Feel Bad About My Neck, taking a cold, hard, hilarious look at the past, the present, and the future, bemoaning the vicissitudes of modern life, and recalling with her signature clarity and wisdom everything she hasn’t (yet) forgotten.

Even as she’s listing “What I Won’t Miss” and “What I Will Miss” - making the final tally - Ephron reaches back to recount falling hard for a way of life (“Journalism: A Love Story”) and breaking up even harder with the men in her life (“The D Word”), a long-anticipated inheritance with entirely unanticipated results (“My Life as an Heiress”), and the evolution, a decade after she wrote and directed You’ve Got Mail, of her relationship with her in-box (“The Six Stages of E- mail”). All the while, she gives candid, charming voice to everything women who have reached a certain age have been thinking... but have rarely acknowledged.

Filled with insights and observations that instantly ring true - and could have come only from Nora Ephron - I Remember Nothing is a pure delight.

Delightful

I adored the book. Narrator is perfection. I’m sharing this beautiful gift with my besties♥️

a bit boring

Nora tends to drone on in this autobiography. Her life must've been interesting but she tends to retell all the boring things of her life.... The first chapter is almost unbearable then the rest is ok

Love Nora Ephron

It's great to hear her voice, with, and perspective. I was hoping it would sound more conversational than necessarily read from a book, since its her personal thoughts, but still very enjoyable.

A life well-lived

I went straight from "I Feel Bad About my Neck" to "I Remember Nothing". How delightful to get to spend several hours in Nora Ephron's company! What a fascinating life she had...and how sad I am that she's no longer here. But how lucky we are to hear her words in her own voice. We'll remember her, with laughter and love.

Love the dry humor

This book made me laugh out loud. I love the essays and the dry delivery. I might have to listen again.

Lovely

Any additional comments?

I really like Nora Ephron and was genuinely upset when she passed away.
Her writing style is so sharp and clever, but also poignant with a hint of sadness.

I listened to this as an Audible.com audio book narrated by the author which I really enjoyed. I think wherever possible the author should narrate, especially in cases of essays and memoirs, it just makes the experience more genuine and touching.

This was particularly touching as she discussed aging, disease, divorce and death and shared her thoughts on how they impacted her life and her self image. She still managed to make it fun though, which is something I love Nora for.

Wonderful read

I love Nora Ephron. Particularly her musings on daily life. She makes me laugh and she makes me sad in a 'this is life' sort of way. Highly recommend.

Became a Memoir....

There are moments of this book that bring laughter, revive random memories, and contain thoughts that ring so true in my own life now that I am 'older'.

Nora

I love her books and her voice. Who else could read her words with the beat she naturally has?
I was sad to hear of her passing, but will enjoy reading her works over again. She has explained how I feel about Aruba, my neck and “What’s your name?”

Hilarious

Maybe because I am now "oldish" I love Nora's perspective and sense of humor. I do, however think that I would have thought this book funny in my youth. I just would not have fully understood or appreciated it quite as much.
Love this book!
