Description (from the publisher):

Laurie Sandell grew up in awe (and sometimes in terror) of her larger-than-life father, who told jaw-dropping tales of a privileged childhood in Buenos Aires, academic triumphs, heroism during Vietnam, friendships with Kissinger and the Pope. As a young woman, Laurie unconsciously mirrors her dad, trying on several outsized personalities (Tokyo stripper, lesbian seductress, Ambien addict). Later, she lucks into the perfect job--interviewing celebrities for a top women's magazine. Growing up with her extraordinary father has given Laurie a knack for relating to the stars. But while researching an article on her dad's life, she makes an astonishing discovery: he's not the man he says he is--not even close. Now, Laurie begins to puzzle together three decades of lies and the splintered person that resulted from them--herself.

Can a memoir be referred to as a "graphic novel"? Can the serious issues of drug and alcohol addiction be dealt with in comic book form? Don't let the presentation fool you - this book is the real deal. Due to be released later this month, Hachette Book Group has generously offered to give away five (5) copies of this groundbreaking title to my readers so you can check it out for yourself.
