Kiss Me Like A Stranger by Gene Wilder (2005, Unabridged, Compact Disc)

This book is not a fictional attempt at comedy, as some might expect, no. It is much better than that. In this book, Gene Wilder talks about his life, high and low points, you know, the real "stuff" of life. He speaks with poignancy, tenderness, humor and charm. I realized several times, while I was listening to this unabridged audiobook, I would be smiling, and a few times I felt sadness. What came through was his honesty, in whatever area he was talking about. I have always liked Gene Wilder a great deal, but after experiencing his book, especially the audiobook because he is the reader, I found I felt a new and heightened level of respect for him. I think the book is excellent.
