I Remember Nothing

And Other Reflections

De: Nora Ephron

Narrado por: Nora Ephron

Nora Ephron returns with her first book since the astounding success of I Feel Bad About My Neck, taking a cold, hard, hilarious look at the past, the present, and the future, bemoaning the vicissitudes of modern life, and recalling with her signature clarity and wisdom everything she hasn’t (yet) forgotten.

Even as she’s listing “What I Won’t Miss” and “What I Will Miss” - making the final tally - Ephron reaches back to recount falling hard for a way of life (“Journalism: A Love Story”) and breaking up even harder with the men in her life (“The D Word”), a long-anticipated inheritance with entirely unanticipated results (“My Life as an Heiress”), and the evolution, a decade after she wrote and directed You’ve Got Mail, of her relationship with her in-box (“The Six Stages of E- mail”). All the while, she gives candid, charming voice to everything women who have reached a certain age have been thinking... but have rarely acknowledged.

Filled with insights and observations that instantly ring true - and could have come only from Nora Ephron - I Remember Nothing is a pure delight.

Must read

Fact of life put in simple and funny words.
Touched on every stage of life
Exceeded expectation
I enjoyed listening to Nora's voice . Clear and never boring. I have favorite chapters .

A joy

This is such a great listen for me. I have enjoyed this more times than I can think. I am looking forward to her other books being added to my library. I will miss Ms Ephron and am looking forward to many years of enjoying her sharing her life experience.

Some essays more interesting than others

Nora Ephron is best known for her screenplays "When Harry Met Sally" and "Sleepless in Seattle." It's a collection of humorous essays of events throughout her life. Stories of her parents (both well-known playwrights and screenwriters) evoke nostalgic feelings of 1960s Hollywood. There is an assortment of topics she writes about, some more interesting than others.

Quick and uplifting

Just a simple delight. Enjoyable short stories from a classic author. I enjoyed the later stories more than the first one, the namesake to be honest. Still simple, fun read.

Delightful

I adored the book. Narrator is perfection. I’m sharing this beautiful gift with my besties♥️

a bit boring

Nora tends to drone on in this autobiography. Her life must've been interesting but she tends to retell all the boring things of her life.... The first chapter is almost unbearable then the rest is ok

Love Nora Ephron

It's great to hear her voice, with, and perspective. I was hoping it would sound more conversational than necessarily read from a book, since its her personal thoughts, but still very enjoyable.

A life well-lived

I went straight from "I Feel Bad About my Neck" to "I Remember Nothing". How delightful to get to spend several hours in Nora Ephron's company! What a fascinating life she had...and how sad I am that she's no longer here. But how lucky we are to hear her words in her own voice. We'll remember her, with laughter and love.

Love the dry humor

This book made me laugh out loud. I love the essays and the dry delivery. I might have to listen again.
