Apropos of Nothing - Large Print Edition Hardcover – March 23, 2020

Great I can’t wait to get it. A real win for free speech in this country. Bravo Arcade Publishing for standing up to Troll-Pressure. The hypocrisy of these people is astonishing. More a review of the publishing than the book. I concede that.

I'm a huge Woody Allen fan. Woody's films make life better. He's the greatest artist, and the coolest.Woody has been a victim of a false accusation (an accusation that back in 1992 was throughly investigated by 2 teams of experts that arrived to the same conclusion: Woody was innocent), but, since the world is upside down, Woody's art suffered too the lynching of the mob, the ignorant, and the stupid. This false accusation was re-opened in 2018 and followed a shower of McCarthyism and surrealist censorship of Woody's art.So, in 2018, me and millions of other Woody Allen fans around the world were robbed of the pleasure of watching our yearly Woody Allen film. Some weeks ago Hachette (who was going to publish Woody's memoir) showed a huge degree of cowardice and unprofessionalism and stepped back. Now, finally, Arcade has the honor of being Woody's publisher.About Woody's memoir, Arcade writes: “The book is a candid and comprehensive personal account by Woody Allen of his life, ranging from his childhood in Brooklyn through his acclaimed career in film, theater, television, print and standup comedy, as well as exploring his relationships with family and friends.” Well, I can't wait to read it! Woody is one of the greatest writers in the world, so this book will be amazing. Thanks, Woody. Thanks, Arcade. We love, support and admire Woody Allen.

First off, I tried buying this book from Amazon...twice. But unfortunately, even after pre-ordering, the book was unavailable. I bought my hardcover copy from B&N . I received it yesterday and am 100 pages in. He tells it all and yes, he's a very funny man. I hope that you all get to read it. It's A to Z , beginning just before his birth. Just in the first 100 pages, there is so much I didn't know...Dick Cavett had shock treatments? I want to read it slowly, so that it lasts. I love his films, always have, and have the majority on DVDs. Love his comedy albums ( I was introduced to them by my husband). So glad that I'm getting to read this book. I just love Woody Allen.

I have been waiting for this book. It did not disappoint. So many interesting comics and stories that brought me back down memory lane. Made me smile.

Well, I would be glad to review the book... if I could actually lay my hands on a copy. Courageous move on the part of Jeff Bezos. Not.
