Summary
Not precisely autobiographical, these are Liv Ullmann's pensive, discerning recollections--with flashbacks and closeups--of the conflicts and joys of motherhood, the odd perquisites of a demanding profession, her early marriage and the liaison with director Ingmar Bergman. Whether musing on Henry Kissinger or catching Hugh Hefner snoozing through his own porn movie, she writes openly, gracefully, often with that dreamy, respectful little girl or rebellious teen-ager hovering nearby. Aware of the child in herself, she delights in daughter Linn and their time together, yet knows that the telephone--or an airplane flight--will ultimately intrude. Ullmann maintains an honest perspective, even remembering the most trying situations, and chiefly regrets time spent seeking love and approbation. An exceptionally poised view of vulnerability and resilience.
