"What is truth? How does someone make sense of their life lived through a public lens? In Out of the Corner, Jennifer Grey peels back all the artifice, denial, obfuscation, and myriad assumptions and exposes a gorgeous, human portrait of her life, hard lived-in and fiercely fought for. Her chapter titles alone show the insights and whimsy that she brings to her memoir, along with the shattering public and private struggles and successes. It's miles deep, sharply personal, bracingly honest--and if there's anybody who deserves to step out of the corner into the light of her mind and indomitable spirit, it's Jennifer Grey." --Jamie Lee Curtis "We all know Jennifer Grey as a talented actress, but Out of the Corner introduces us to a gifted writer. In reading her memoir, I understood the passion, love, and loss that has given shape to her life's journey. Her narrative is nuanced, her words carefully chosen for maximum impact. She shares achingly human moments, like what it was like as a little girl to watch her father, the iconic Joel Grey, as he applied his greasepaint before taking the stage in Cabaret. Out of the Corner is a revelation, a work of emotional generosity and personal courage. It's sneaky brilliant. Love it and love Jennifer. Baby got Book." --Michael J. Fox, "What is truth?

Grey emerges as a resilient star in her own story, candidly sharing with readers all her joy, confusion, and hard-won wisdom along the way. Fans won't want to miss this." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "An actor's intimate self-portrait. In a gossipy, lively memoir, Grey chronicles her evolving sense of identity. . . . A spirited look at stardom." -- Kirkus Reviews

Synopsis
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A deeply candid and refreshingly spirited memoir of identity lost and found from the star of the iconic film Dirty Dancing "A funny, dishy, occasionally heartbreaking coming-of-age story."-- The New York Times "Savage and engaging . . . Grey's memoir is interesting not only for her journey out of darkness but also for what her story reveals about what women encounter in the entertainment business, and the fortitude required to make it."-- The Washington Post In this beautiful, close-to-the bone account, Jennifer Grey takes readers on a vivid tour of the experiences that have shaped her, from her childhood as the daughter of Broadway and film legend Joel Grey, to the surprise hit with Patrick Swayze that made her America's sweetheart, to her inspiring season eleven win on ABC's Dancing with the Stars . Throughout this intimate narrative, Grey richly evokes places and times that were defining for a generation--from her preteen days in 1970s Malibu and wild child nights in New York's club scene, to her roles in quintessential movies of the 1980s, including The Cotton Club, Red Dawn, and her breakout performance in Ferris Bueller's Day Off . With self-deprecating humor and frankness, she looks back on her unbridled, romantic adventures in Hollywood. And with enormous bravery, she shares the devastating fallout from a plastic surgery procedure that caused the sudden and stunning loss of her professional identity and career. Grey inspires with her hard-won battle back, reclaiming her sense of self from a culture and business that can impose a narrow and unforgiving definition of female worth. She finds, at last, her own true north and starts a family of her own, just in the nick of time. Distinctive, moving, and powerful, told with generosity and pluck, Out of the Corner is a memoir about a never-ending personal evolution, a coming-of-age story for women of every age., NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * A deeply candid and refreshingly spirited memoir of identity lost and found from the star of the iconic film Dirty Dancing "A funny, dishy, occasionally heartbreaking coming-of-age story."-- The New York Times "Savage and engaging . . .

    I was so excited when my package arrived. The item did not disappoint. The book itself was in such great condition, as if it was brand new. The item arrived in a bubble mailer with a bubble wrap around the product, showing that love and care was put into this package. I received the product exactly how it is shown on their photos and I love that.
