The story of my life is the story of my stories, writes Susan Orlean in this exhilarating memoir from one of the greatest practitioners of narrative nonfiction of our time. Joyride is Orleans most personal book ever, a searching journey through finding her feet as a journalist, recovering from the excruciating collapse of her first marriage, falling head over heels in love again, becoming a mother while mourning the decline of her own mother, sojourning to Hollywood for films based on her work (including Adaptation and Blue Crush) and confronting mortality. Joyride is also a time machine to a bygone era of journalism, from Orleans bright start in the golden age of alt-weeklies to her careermaking days working alongside such icons as Tina Brown, David Remnick, Anna Wintourand Sonny Mehta, forces who shaped the media industry as we know it today. Infused with Orleans signature warmth and wit, Joyride is a must-read for anyone who hungers to start, build and sustain a creative life.
