{"product_id":"managing-expectations","title":"Managing Expectations","description":"\u003cp\u003eVital, heartfelt and surprising, these tales from a life are told with humour, style and intelligence.' - Graham Norton'A wonderful memoir by a glorious writer: funny, poignant, profound. I gobbled it up in one joyous sitting.' - Elizabeth Day'An absoluteand jeweland of a book. Gloriously readable, hilarious, painful, acute, sharply recalled and vividly brought to life' - Stephen FryA dazzling 'tell-most' memoir: poignant and laugh-out-loud funny scenes from the life of actor Minnie Driver.I love stories. I have mostly told other people's but now, in telling my own, I realize how all our stories are connected by that great leveller of acclaim, loss, fortitude, and fortune: being human.When I look at my life from the alleged halfway point, some patterns are revealed: one, that the story does not necessarily begin or end where it should; two, happy endings are overrated. And three, happy endings are almost never the end.This book is memoir-ish. A tell-most. Largely because there's a lot I don't remember, and a lot that's not worth talking about.So, this is a collection of stories about how things not working out - worked out in the end. How reaching for the dream is easily more interesting, expansive, sad and funny than the dream itself coming true.I really hope you enjoy it.Love, Minnie x\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Minnie Driver","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44214016081980,"sku":"9781786581518","price":2471.25,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/libertybooksstore.myshopify.com\/products\/managing-expectations","provider":"LibertyBooksStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
