Long-listed, Barnes and Noble Best New Books of the Year, 2024

This program is read by the author, Golden Globe–winning actor Eric Roberts.

In this brutally candid memoir, Academy Award and Golden Globe nominee Eric Roberts pulls no punches about the ups and downs of his career and his sometimes stormy relationship with his famous sister, Julia.

Eric Roberts grew up in Georgia, spending most of his teens away from his mother and sisters, Lisa and Julia. Instead, he stayed with his controlling father, a grifter jealous of his early success. At age 17, Eric moved to New York to pursue acting, where he worked and partied with future legends like Christopher Walken, Mickey Rourke, John Malkovich, Bruce Willis, and Robin Williams.

His big break came when he was cast in King of the Gypsies. Eric became one of the hottest stars of his era, starting an affair with actress Sandy Dennis, working with Bob Fosse on the critically acclaimed Star 80, and earning an Oscar nomination for Runaway Train. But for Eric, Hollywood came with a dark side—an ocean of cocaine that nearly swept him away, culminating in a car accident that almost cost him his life.

Eric is open about the seriousness of his addictions and their devastating effect on his career. He reveals the reasons behind his complicated relationship with his sister, Julia, and his daughter, Emma, a successful actress in her own right. Now, happily married to actress and casting director Eliza Roberts, who helped him confront his demons, he is revered among his peers as the ultimate actor’s actor.

Written with New York Times bestselling author, for years a Vanity Fair contributing editor, and current Air Mail writer-at-large Sam Kashner, this is a powerful memoir of a Hollywood legend.

Music for this program is courtesy of Keaton Simons.

Raw honesty

Splendid. So raw and beautiful, though hard to hear at times. Glad to travel with him.

Great stories told by the man himself

Mr. Robert’s did a great job telling his story and is a fantastic narrator (not a huge surprise for the talented actor).

Touching stories

I love the way he spoke of his wife Eliza. He spoke very lovingly about his family even though it sounds like he was mistreated by those he loved the most.

The truthfulness of Eric’s story.

Dear Eric & Eliza,
Thank you for the wonderful story of your lives. I have always enjoyed seeing Eric in any movie and rooted for him on Dancing with the Stars! Your romance is like what my late husband and I had, and it is so hard to live without him. I just have to make it day by day for our sons. I loved the emotional journey of you and your parents. Thank goodness it softens in time. Thank you again for the insight. I found your story so relatable to anyone’s life experiences. Much love and respect to you both!

So much talent lost in a haze.

I know from experience life can be messy and drugs can make it worse. Is success genetic or do some just constantly test there abilities by looking into themselves too hard?
