The New York Times bestsellerânow in paperback. Award-winning actress Shirley MacLaine pens the most funny, accessible, and timely book of her career, detailing all the things sheâs overâŚand a few sheâs not.
At a certain time in life, we all come to realize what is truly important to us and what just doesnât matter. For Shirley MacLaine, that time is now. In this wise, witty, and fearless collection of small observations and big-picture questions, she shares with readers all those things that she is over dealing with in life, in love, at home, and in the larger worldâŚas well as the things she will never get over, no matter how long she lives.
Among the things that Shirley is over: people who repeat themselves; conservatives and liberals; ill-mannered young people; the poison of celebrity; being polite to boring people; and getting older in Hollywood.
As frank and personal as Nora Ephronâs I Feel Bad About My Neckâwhich, incidentally, Shirley doesnât since she knows the secrets of good lightingâIâm Over All That is MacLaine at her acerbic and irreverent best.
