Summary
Kelsey Grammer's career has been blessed with great comedy, but to know his personal life is to truly know tragedy. In this frank, compelling, and moving autobiography, the Emmy Award-winning star of Frasier and Cheers poignantly recounts the overwhelming tragedies that haunted his early life - the murders of his father and sister, and accidental deaths of his 2 half-brothers. Despite his remarkable television success, Grammer's struggle to cope with these traumas led him to drug and alcohol addictions that soon became public. So Far... describes his nightmarish journey and inspiring triumphs, with behind-the-scenes stories from the sets of his 2 hit shows. Human, fallible, funny, and wise, Grammer has developed a profound philosophical approach to both the comic and the tragic aspects of life.

Very interesting.
While I did enjoy this I would have liked a little more depth about situations. Well read.

Selfish or honest?
I loved the insight into Kelsey's life. A few people have criticised not mentioning the Simpsons but the book is more about his personal struggles. He often mentions people who assisted him and the luck of a lot of his success. Worth a read or listen!

Unmistakably Kelsey
From Frasier to Boss to sideshow bob, there's no one more distinguishable than Kelsey Grammer. Hearing the inaccuracies exposed that were reported in the press and stated on the internet, along with the hard truthes of his tragic life, read by the man himself is as warm and comforting as a hot bath in the dead of winter. Yet the experience is intensified by the high quality prose of 'so far'.
Would recomend it highly to anyone, and would willingly forgo any luxury of value to purchase this audiobook.

A cracking find
Yes it’s a bit dated now but even up until the end of the book Kelsey had lead quite the life. His voice is of course perfect as the narrator for many reasons. We listened to it while on an RV holiday in the US and it made one incredibly boring stretch of road fantastic. Yes he’s witty, but the book isn’t comical. Hearing him speak about his sister is heartbreaking. I hope he’s found peace.

Great & Unusual
Spoken just as he is on TV and as quirky. A curios life but full and diverse.

A Beautiful Narration.
An amazing man with a amazing voice, just perfect for an audio book version.
Although some may question his morals in certain areas of his life, with most being based on false opinion, this man has lived a life that few could imagine in the good ways and bad.
You just can not get away from his most beautiful charm. One of life’s truly enigmatic characters, well worth a listen.

Don't listen to this if you want a laugh
Well he certainly is an unusual character but after a while I felt it was all a bit too serious. obviously, having one's father and sister murdered isn't funny but there doesn't seem to have been much joy in his life at all..All his marriages seemed to fail due to the women he married .He has problems with drink drugs and women and it is difficult to know how much of his autobio is true as he doesn't take much responsibility for his own actions.I felt sorry for him and don't think I would like to meet him in real life. he's clever and talented but very troubled and there are no laughs in this book AT ALL. Considering his comedic performances I felt that was a great pity.But then he didn't write the scripts, he only wrote this rather sad book
