A chance encounter at a summer party on Martha’s Vineyard blossomed into an improbable but enduring friendship. Carly Simon and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis made an unlikely pair - Carly, a free and artistic spirit still reeling from her recent divorce, searching for meaning, new love, and an anchor; and Jackie, one of the most celebrated, meticulous, unknowable women in American history. Nonetheless, over the next decade their lives merged in inextricable and complex ways, and they forged a connection deeper than either could ever have foreseen.

Historia
In 1986, Paul Newman and his closest friend, screenwriter Stewart Stern, began an extraordinary project. Stuart was to compile an oral history, to have Newman’s family and friends and those who worked closely with him, talk about the actor’s life. And then Newman would work with Stewart and give his side of the story. The only stipulation was that anyone who spoke on the record had to be completely honest. The result is The Extraordinary Life of an Ordinary Man—revelatory and introspective, personal and analytical, loving and tender in places, always complex and profound.

Historia
From 1783, when German immigrant John Jacob Astor first arrived in the United States, until 2009, when Brooke Astor’s son, Anthony Marshall, was convicted of defrauding his elderly mother, the Astor name occupied a unique place in American society. The family fortune, first made by a beaver trapping business that grew into an empire, was then amplified by holdings in Manhattan real estate. Over the ensuing generations, Astors ruled Gilded Age New York society and inserted themselves into political and cultural life, but also suffered the most famous loss on the Titanic.

Just as Nicks (and Lindsay Buckingham) gave Fleetwood Mac the "shot of adrenaline" they needed to become real rock stars - according to Christine McVie - Gold Dust Woman is vibrant with stories and with a life lived large and hard.

"Unvarnished. Funny. Leaving no stone unturned"...So say the publishers about this audiobook I've written. What I say is that this is the story of my life, told as clear as a Texas sky and in the same rhythm that I lived it. It's a story of restlessness and the purity of the moment and living right. Of my childhood in Abbott, Texas, to the Pacific Northwest, from Nashville to Hawaii, and all the way back again. Of selling vacuum cleaners and encyclopedias while hosting radio shows and writing song after song, hoping to strike gold.

Resumen del Editor
Simon's memoir reveals her remarkable life, beginning with her storied childhood as the third daughter of Richard L. Simon, the cofounder of publishing giant Simon & Schuster; her musical debut as half of The Simon Sisters, performing folk songs with her sister, Lucy, in Greenwich Village; to a meteoric solo career that would result in 13 top 40 hits, including the number-one song "You're So Vain". She was the first artist in history to win a Grammy Award, an Academy Award, and a Golden Globe Award, for her song "Let the River Run" from the movie Working Girl.
The memoir recalls a childhood enriched by music and culture but also one shrouded in secrets that would eventually tear her family apart. Simon brilliantly captures moments of creative inspiration, the sparks of songs, and the stories behind writing "Anticipation" and "We Have No Secrets", among many others. Romantic entanglements with some of the most famous men of the day fueled her confessional lyrics as well as the unraveling of her storybook marriage to James Taylor.
Includes original music composed especially for the program by Carly Simon and Teese Gohl plus a previously unreleased bonus song from Carly Simon.

For a long time, Nadja Spiegelman believed her mother was a fairy. More than her famous father, Maus creator Art Spiegelman, and even more than most mothers, hers - French-born New Yorker art director Françoise Mouly - exerted a force over reality that was both dazzling and daunting. As Nadja's body changed and "began to whisper to the adults around me in a language I did not understand", their relationship grew tense.

Jimmy Webb's words have been sung to his music by a rich and deep roster of pop artists, including Glen Campbell, Art Garfunkel, Frank Sinatra, Donna Summer, and Linda Ronstadt. He's the only artist ever to win Grammy Awards for music, lyrics, and orchestration, and his chart-topping career has, so far, lasted 50 years, most recently with a Kanye West rap hit and a new classical nocturne. Now Webb delivers a snapshot of his life from 1955 to 1970, from the proverbial humble beginnings into a moneyed and manic international world of beautiful women, drugs, cars, and planes.

What I say is that this is the story of my life, told as clear as a Texas sky and in the same rhythm that I lived it. It's a story of restlessness and the purity of the moment and living right. Of my childhood in Abbott, Texas, to the Pacific Northwest, from Nashville to Hawaii, and all the way back again. Of selling vacuum cleaners and encyclopedias while hosting radio shows and writing song after song, hoping to strike gold.

Too much James Taylor
I wanted her to talk more about the songs and her comeback in the 80s. There is way too much stuff about her relationship with James Taylor. He is not interesting to me. It's a good book though and very well written.

Boy in the Tree
Great information and reflection of Carly's early life, performance career through 1980 and marriage to James. You can tell she is still in love with him and hoped for a better outcome. Still wanted more from her life from the mid 80's to now but that'll be her next book
I gave the performance 4 stars only because the background music was a bit loud at times and a little distracting at first but eventually liked it. Music selection is good and definitely set a lot of the mood.
Carly is still one my favorite singer songwriters and hope she finds the courage to do a national tour.

Wow
Where does Boys in the Trees rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I have not listened to many audio books before, but this book really was a great first go at it. The delivery, passion and feeling in Carly's beautiful familiar voice, with occasional music in the background told her life story through humor, truth, fears, pain, disappointments, all wrapped around an exciting life. Born of musical royalty rubbing shoulders with and inter- mingling with the whose who of the music and the entertainment world since birth, kept me listening through the night. I googled pictures of her family, friends and loves of her life while I listened. I picked up where I left off in the morning and listened all the next day until the book was done. I LOVED IT.

I would love to get to know Carly. She has written an intelligent and honest memoir that clearly took a lot of courage and self- examination. She is a wonderful writer, which I wasn't expecting in someone so talented in other ways....her story would have been interesting enough, but as written ( and scored), it was a truly memorable experience. As her old friend may have said, "Well done, Simon Sister!"

she's so vain, here's why
Where does Boys in the Trees rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
this audio book really kept my attention and intrigued me.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Boys in the Trees?
oh , so many memorable moments....i feel like i lived them with her, she made them very accessible.. her meeting with Sean Connery really summed up her personality for me. the drive to meet and be close to a celebrity. which seemed to be a big theme in here life experience. her competition with her sister and the way she got disappointed and felt cheated ,reflected her paradigm.
What about Carly Simon’s performance did you like?
i loved her candid accessible style. she shared her weaknesses and frailties . i liked the way she did some singing . enjoyed her "magical thinking".
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
not an extreme reaction. i was surprised by how much i enjoyed it and my heart opened to her. i found her emotional math interesting . one disrespectful mom and two long legs don't equal an affair with mick jagger. but hey, we all rationalize our lives.
Any additional comments?
i hope she can make some money with the book, i appreciate her candid tell all.

Readers voice and music great!
Would you consider the audio edition of Boys in the Trees to be better than the print version?
The readers voice is also the author so there is a personality added to this listening experience. Highlighted with music was awesome. Especially if you are a fan of this songwriter and her music.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Carly Simon
What about Carly Simon’s performance did you like?
Her narrative of her life as a child and throughout her life.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, I think it was interesting but a very long story to go through without breaks due to the transitions and the experiences throughout authors life.
Any additional comments?
I would probably have lost interest in this memoir if it had not been narrated by the author and the added special effects of the music and singing by the author.

Awareness
I always wonder how someone got to be how they are, and Carly let me see some things that have shaped her. Are any of us aware of all the things that have molded us, no. This is a wonderful, heartfelt, look at her.
