About this product

Product Information

She is one of the most recognizable women of our time. America knows Jane Fonda as an actress and an activist, a feminist and a wife, a workout guru and a role model. Now, in this extraordinary memoir, Fonda reveals that she is so much more. From her youth among Hollywood's elite and her early film career to the challenges and triumphs of her life today, Jane Fonda reveals intimate details and universal truths that she hopes "can provide a lens through which others can see their lives and how they can live them a little differently." Fonda divides her "life so far" into three "acts," writing about her childhood, first films, and marriage to Roger Vadim in Act One. At once a picture emerges: a child born to the acting legend Henry Fonda and the glamorous society princess Frances Seymour. But these early years are also marked by profound sadness: her mother's mental illness and suicide when Jane is twelve years old, her father's emotional distance, and her personal struggle to find her way in the world as a young woman. By her second act, Fonda lays the foundation for her activism, even as her career takes flight. She highlights her struggle to live consciously and authentically while remaining in the public eye as she recounts her marriages to Tom Hayden and Ted Turner, and examines her controversial and defining involvement with the Vietnam War. As her film career grows, Fonda learns to incorporate her roles into a larger vision of what matters most in her lifeand in the process she wins two Academy Awards, for Kluteand for Coming Home. In Fonda's third act, she is prepared to do the work of a lifetimeto begin living consciously in a way that might inspire others who can learn from her experiences. Surprising, candid, and wonderfully written, Jane Fonda'sMy Life So Faris filled with universal insights into the personal struggles of women living full and engaged lives.

Reviews
"Belongs alongside the memoirs of Gloria Steinem, Bella Abzug, Marilyn French and Katharine Graham. . . . To hold this book in your hands is to be astonished by how much living can be packed into sixty-plus years." Los Angeles Times "[A] sisterly, enveloping memoir . . . an intimate, haunting book that might as well be catnip from its ever controversial author." Janet Maslin, The New York Times "Terrific . . . rich . . . unexpectedly quite moving." San Francisco Chronicle "Fiercely intelligent, detailed, probing, rigorously revealing." O: The Oprah Magazine "Fonda possesses a raw and affecting candor. . . . Her honesty [is] a force." The Philadelphia Inquirer "A fearless book . . . fascinating." Chicago Sun-Times "Truly compelling." The Atlanta Journal-Constitution "Riveting." Seattle Post-Intelligencer From the Trade Paperback edition.

  • Jane Fonda Honesty that I Understand and Respect, 10 st

    This book reflects Jane Fonda's admirable honesty. She has had (and I believe still has) a mesmerizing life. She made some errors, recognized them, and always been willing to grow and modify with the times and because of her own experiences. I discovered something that I did not know when I bought the book-to love and admire this woman more. I read it in one night, and I could not put it down! The most important thing about this book is that you will read a portion and then put it down and start looking at yourself. If you have any interest in overcoming problems, (as I did, and anyone should) this is important read. It is about beautiful Jane, and so much more... stars

  • A must for Jane Fonda Fans

    A warm, funny and often inspirational look back on Fonda's varied and accomplished career so far. She recalls a sometimes difficult upbringing and early career ups and downs to her film breakthrough in Barefoot in the Park. Fonda looks candidly at her marriage to Roger Vadim, sex symbol status and moments as Hanoi Jane. The star of such films as the China Syndrome, 9 to 5 and Agnes of God also serves up poignant memories of her father, film legend Henry Fonda. Jane's exuberance for life is underlined by human rights crusades and a desire to make a difference. Such contrasts set this book apart from the typical Hollywood fare.

  • Jane Fonda Shares Her Life

    This book was bought because I see Jane Fonda as a long term fixture in the entertainment industry, and on topics that are too hot for most to talk about. This book shows that while she is still hiding a lot of secrets that are too personal, she opens up in many life changing ways and shares some great photographs with the public. She has done a fine job in this book, and acknowledges the part she played in her life's decisions, and why.

  • Great Read! Theraputic for everyone with difficult family dynamics~

    I purchased this book because I saw Jane Fonda on a talk show and I related to some of her family issues. I have always been fond of her. I am still reading the book, however so far, I am very glad I purchased it and would highly reconmmend it to anyone interested. I actually found hearing her say her feelings was very theraputic for me, since I could definitely relate and was glad I was not alone in the way I have always felt about my own mother. Great read!
