Managing expectations /
Driver, Minnie.
Managing expectations / Minnie Driver. - London : Manilla Press, [2022]. - 276 pages : illustrations (black and white) ; 23 cm.
Originally published: New York: HarperOne.
'Managing Expectations' is a collection of delicately crafted, hilarious and heartfelt essays, described as a 'tell-most', in which Minnie Driver uses her formidable storytelling skills to examine and understand her less-than-ordinary life. Suffused with warmth and humour, Minnie shares poignant, candid and honest stories of her unconventional childhood, the shock of fame, motherhood, love, success, failure, the power of sisterly love, and the loss of her beloved mother. In her own words, it's about how things not working out actually worked out in the end, and how reaching for the dream is easily more interesting, expansive, sad and funny than the dream itself coming true.
