About this listen

Dublin-born actor Gabriel Byrne shares his life in this frank and absorbing collection of memories and episodes. He leads you from his youth through his career on stage and screen and his current work as a producer and actor. Along the way, he gives his impression of Hollywood, New York, and his native Ireland, and provides insights on famous actors such as Richard Burton. His unique narrative style, a blend of colloquial dialogue with evocative descriptions, provides an intimate account of the man - and the writer - behind the actor's many faces.©1994 by Gabriel Byrne (P)1995 Dove Audio, Inc.

Critic reviews

"[With] sharp wit he tells hilarious stories about acting and displays a wicked facility for mimicking Irish speech....A fine reminiscence that will have the reader calling for more." ( Publishers Weekly)

A beautiful memoir, the first of two written and narrated by Gabriel Byrne. His voice is mesmerising and the stories and memories shared are both funny and moving. I would also recommend Walking with Ghosts which is his more recent memoir.

A wonderful memoir from a great Irish actor
