Jerry Lewis, in Person

This is an hysterical parody of a memoir by Jerry Lewis. The points are hamhanded and the the author is so in love with his own words that he thinks his "expert" voice can rectify all the flaws of his logic and self-importance. Jerry I give you a lot of credit because most people will read this as you seriously reflecting on your life ... but you and I both know that you're lampooning the retrospective tomes that faded stars put out well into their golden years as one last gasp so that they may feel the heat of the spotlight for just a few moments more, and remember that for one shining moment way in the past people actually cared what you had to say.

This book is Jerry Lewis in his own words. It is interesting, because more than two decades of his life have passed since penning this autobiography. This was him before his success in "Damn Yankees", and before his film with Johnny Depp or the 1995 film "Funny Bones". He gives a personal account of a man, not a Hollywood mogul or American Icon, as he is, and this is why the book is amazing.
