About this listen

Here are the excruciatingly funny adventures of Suzanne Vale — a young film star and drug addict — who survives a rehab clinic only to rejoin the equally harrowing world of Hollywood. Out there on the edge, despair flips into hilarity, and we're left laughing as Suzanne struggles to come to terms with her various fantasylands.

This stunning literary debut — read by author and actress Carrie Fisher herself — evokes the deliciously irreverent humor that formed the lens through which Fisher looked at life in the '80s: the stardom, the success, the sex — as well as the drugs, the desperation, and the insecurity.

Brilliant humorous take on her own life (and many stars since the start of cinema), bittersweet and engaging - and it being read in her own voice makes it even more of a jewel!

Brilliantly written and read by Carrie Fisher

The true master of audio storytelling. Enjoyed listening to this book, Susannah reminds me of some people I have met throughout my years. Rip Ms fisher

Nice to hear this story in Carrie’s familiar voice, I’ve read the book and it’s exactly how I imagined. Forever my favourite writing from her.

At the beginning they say this was converted from a cassette recording and it's clear in both the poor audio quality and abridged content. The result is a very confused muddy story that probably doesn't do justice to the original work.

Abridged cassette conversion provides half a book!
