Rating:
5 / 5
The most recent and best of Maureen Lipman's autobiographies, Lip Reading is a hilarious ode to an unexpectedly unconventional family life. Lipman is well-known in Britain both for her acting talents and for her slightly neurotic, Jewish humour in the tradition of one her her favourite directors, Woody Allen. This book is a collection of anecdotes from her atypical life with her husband, playwrite Jack Rosenthal (Yentl) and their two children...I've been a fan of Maureen Lipman for some years, although I can't claim it hasn't lost me some friends- caused by my attacks of 'Maureen-itis' a seemingly incurable condition brought on by excessive consumption of her books, and invariably preceded by "You'll never guess what's happened now!" My only criticism would be that this book is now three years old- we addicts need another one, and soon!
