'Memories, aphorisms and stern good advice from America's favourite naughty aunt' Independent on Sunday 'This book is as grown-up as a dirty martini' Sunday Times 'Sharp as a knife' Daily Express

___

In her final book, Nora Ephron reflects on life, growing older, and everything she will and won't miss. Filled with Nora's trademark wit, wisdom and warmth.

* No one actually likes to admit they're old. The most they will cop to is that they're older. Or oldish.

* Freedom of the press belongs to the man who owns one.

* I have been forgetting things for years-at least since I was in my thirties. I know this because I wrote something about it at the time. I have proof. Of course, I can't remember exactly where I wrote about it, or when, but I could probably hunt it up if I had to.

Praise for Nora Ephron

'So bold and so vulnerable at the same time. I don't know how she did it' Phoebe Waller-Bridge 'Oh how I loved Nora Ephron' Nigella Lawson 'Funny, knowing and smart' India Knight 'Nora's exacting, precise, didactic, tried-and-tested, sophisticated-woman-wearing-all-black wisdom is a comfort and a relief' Dolly Alderton

Arvustused

You don't have to be old to appreciate this collection of memories, aphorisms and stern good advice from America's favourite naughty aunt... snigger-out-loud... Reading this book is a little like being sat down by an older, wiser friend... good advice indeed * Independent on Sunday * Read Nora Ephron because she's funny, read her because she's wise, read her because she never writes a boring sentence, read her because she's sharp as a knife but her heart's in the right place... Enjoy! -- David Robson * Daily Express * As always, she has an eye for the killer detail... a mixture of memoir, rants and observations... This book is as grown-up as a dirty martini -- Daisy Goodwin * The Sunday Times * If we have to grow old (and as they say, consider the alternative) there's no better guide * People Magazine (Top 10 Books of 2010) * Tantalizingly fresh and forthright... She's self-effacing and brilliant. I use lines of hers all the time... She's like Benjamin Franklin or Shakespeare: her words are now part of the fabric of the English language * The New York Times Book Review * As a writer,novelist and award-winning screenwriter and director of films such as When Harry Met Sally and Sleepless In Seattle, she has had the ability to surf the zeitgeist and make whatever is on her mind... seem fascinating and cool... her book is essential reading for anyone who hopes to grow old elegantly and perhaps a little disgracefully -- Jane Shilling * Mail on Sunday * So clear-eyed, so free of vitriol and sarcasm and artifice that we believe everything she says... If a theme runs beneath the wit and cleverness of I Remember Nothing, it is about the difficulty of coming to terms with one's mortality -- Jane Juska * San Francisco Chronicle * Ephron's voice helped launch a whole new way of writing, and I still love to hear it -- Mary McNamara * Los Angeles Times * Witty and carefree... She remains the neighbor we all wish we had. Someone to share a cup of coffee with. Or better yet, a glass of wine. Maybe two... Listen... If we're all headed to the old folks home, we couldn't have a better guide than Nora Ephron * USA Today * Rich with self-deprecating humor at its finest... so much so that you can almost hear her laughing as she pounds away at the keyboard... a full pleasure to read * New York Journal of Books *
