Book Presentation:
“...the definitive life. I don't think it will ever be superseded ... It is scholarly yet readable, the fullest, most objective and factually detailed book on virtually every aspect of Buster's career and personality: artistic, financial, and pyschological ... full of the most interesting (and surprising) information.” – Dwight MacDonald, The New York Review of Books
“A candid yet compassionate account of Keaton's turbulent personal life...reveals the roots of his humanity ... his pessimism ... âhisã superb spirit of comic gloom ...” – Boston Globe
