Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Field fuels this aching, lyrical memoir with frankness about her emotional childhood, her conflicted relationship with the late Burt Reynolds, and how acting helped her interpret life in all its pain and beauty.” —Entertainment Weekly
“Actor Sally Field, who has won two Academy Awards, delivers a powerhouse performance of her first memoir. Her aging timbre doesn’t detract from the sensitivity that her personal narration brings to the story.” —AudioFile
“The book also tells a story illuminated by its author’s abundant grace and dignity and her authentic desire to plumb the depths of her feelings, a yearning that she said overwhelmed her reticent tendencies.” —New York Times Book Review
“[An] eye-opening and deeply affecting chronicle…Arresting in its dark disclosures, vitality, humor, and grace.” —Booklist
A memoir as soulful, wryly witty, and lyrical as it is candid and courageous… Eye-opening and deeply affecting… Arresting in its dark disclosures, vitality, humour, and grace, Field’s deeply felt and beautifully written memoir illuminates the experiences and emotions on which she draws as an exceptionally charismatic, empathic, and powerful artist.’ —
Impressive, candid and vivid’ —
Sally Field’s was one of the most revelatory memoirs of the year’ —
Written by the actor over seven years, without the aid of a ghostwriter (a crutch often used by celebrity authors), this somber, intimate and at times wrenching self-portrait feels like an act of personal investigation — the private act of a woman, now 71, seeking to understand how she became herself, and striving to cement together the shards of her psyche that have been chipped and shattered over the course of her life.’ —
Field fuels this aching, lyrical memoir with frankness about her emotional childhood, her conflicted relationship with the late Burt Reynolds, and how acting helped her interpret life in all its pain and beauty.’ —
Field’s “pieces" are raw, heartbreaking, sometimes maddening but each builds insight to who she is — and that’s the point. This work, as she thinks of it, is meant to reveal her, not to name-drop or tell unimportant tales about movies made long ago.’ —
Beautifully written… vividly captures the people who have meant most in her life… All come to life as if they are walking into the room where you are reading.' —
'Blisteringly honest' —
'In Pieces is a book that feels wrenched from its author's soul.' —
'The revelations come thick and fast…Field is a real writer, her prose uncluttered and direct…beautiful in its descriptive simplicity.' —
'In Pieces feels like a lengthy therapy session in which Field is tough on herself and the people around her… This is far from a typical showbusiness tale and some Field fans may regret the lack of coverage of many acclaimed films from her career. Instead, this is a painfully honest attempt to confront and understand all the personal heartbreak… An unusually intimate, heartfelt voyage of self-discovery’ —
