Nora Ephron
The woman who brought us When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle, You've Got Mail, and Bewitched, and the author of best sellers Heartburn, Scribble Scribble, and Crazy Salad, discusses everything, from how much she hates her purse to how much time she spends attempting to stop the clock: the hair dye, the treadmill, the lotions and creams that promise to slow the aging process but never do. Oh, and she can't stand the way her neck looks. But her dermatologist tells her there's no quick fix for that.
Ephron chronicles her life as an obsessed cook, passionate city dweller, and hapless parent. She recounts her anything-but-glamorous days as a White House intern during the JFK years and shares how she fell in and out of love with Bill Clinton...from a distance, of course. But mostly she speaks frankly and uproariously about life as a woman of a certain age.
Utterly courageous, wickedly funny, and unexpectedly moving in its truth telling, I Feel Bad About My Neck is a book of wisdom, advice, and laugh-out-loud moments, a scrumptious, irresistible treat.

Reseñas de la Crítica
- The Book Sense Book of the Year Award, Adult Nonfiction, 2007
"Ephron returns to her print roots with a new collection of essays reflecting the perspective of an aging, but still crackling sharp, cultural scribe." (Boston Globe)
"This current gatherum of hard and funny truths spares neither the author's pride nor her audience's, but it does salve wounds, and many of Ephron's insights are bound to come in handy." (The New York Times Book Review)
"Ephron's insights make the book an enjoyable romp.... For people who want a little candor and humor about not only hanging on but getting on, this book is for you." (The New York Post)
Featured Article: The top 100 memoirs of all time
All genres considered, the memoir is among the most difficult and complex for a writer to pull off. After all, giving voice to your own lived experience and recounting deeply painful or uncomfortable memories in a way that still engages and entertains is a remarkable feat. These autobiographies, often narrated by the authors themselves, shine with raw, unfiltered emotion sure to resonate with any listener. But don't just take our word for it—queue up any one of these listens, and you'll hear exactly what we mean.

Where does I Feel Bad About My Neck rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I Feel Bad About My Neck is definitely one of my favorites. I read/listen to various genres, and this is definitely among the better of the memoirs. I have found it is the only Nora memoir (not fictionalized) that I enjoyed.What other book might you compare I Feel Bad About My Neck to and why?
Any of the Sedaris memoirs. Both are read by the authors, both authors are able to clearly convey a scene.Which character – as performed by Nora Ephron – was your favorite?
It is all about La Nora.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No. I listen to this style of book to be able to listen in discrete periods of time. A novel will often suck me in, trying my willpower. Distinct beginnings and endings make it easier to be strong and stop when I should.Any additional comments?
I have listened to this book many times, in whole and in part. It did take me a while to get used to Nora's voice, and every listen takes a bit of an adjustment. But in the end, it makes sense that she narrated her own life and adds a certain depth to the experience.I just love Nora's point of view and perceptions
