Ilustration Supposing Books A Lotus Grows in the Mud

With her trademark effervescence, Goldie delivers a personal look at private and powerful events that carried her through life: her father’s spontaneity; her mother’s courage; and the joy of being a daughter, a sister, a parent, and a lover. She writes about her childhood dreams of becoming a ballerina. She takes us on a tour of her go-go years in 1960s New York City, the phenomenon of TV’s Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In, her Oscar-winning debut in Cactus Flower and Hollywood stardom. She writes intimately about the challenges of love, anger and fear, and the importance of compassion and integrity. She speaks openly about her family, her partner Kurt Russell, her children; her faith, her curiosity for that which she doesn’t yet know, and her thirst for knowledge. Most of all, it is a trip back through a life well lived by a woman well loved.

Piece Based On Books A Lotus Grows in the Mud

I love and have so much respect for this woman. Loved learning about her life.

I really enjoyed this autobiography about Goldie Hawn. I found her life to be very interesting. Of course, she's experienced her share of ups and downs in her lifetime. I'm glad that she's found true love and happiness with her partner, Kurt Russell. Some people wait their entire lives to find love like they have. Good for them and their family!

I expected this to have some bits that were ridiculous, b/c everyone knows Goldie is kind of flighty and, well, not exactly known for profound deep-thinking. I encountered some of this fluff and passed on by it, knowing that it was part of who she was, and so that's fine. After all, I was reading this b/c I was after the story being told of her getting from from point A to point B. I finally had enough though, in Chapter 10, entitled as "trusting men." Basically, in chapter 10 Goldie, in all

I now hate Goldie Hawn. The book itself was well written. But now I totally dislike Goldie Hawn. She is a ridiculous spoiled brat. And by the way, she's not acting. That ditzy blonde she always plays...that's really her. I was so disappointed not to find her to be a savvy comedienne. booo.

Goldie seems sweet but loopy. I read Jane Fonda's book (which was published around the same time) and loved it...I guess I was expecting a similar caliber of writing/story telling from Goldie and that just didn't happen. It's a light read and not terrible. She just comes off oddly preach-y in a lot of it.

A nice positive look into Goldie's life. She honestly shares her joys and hurts but always comes away having learned something. As in life the lotus does grow in and in spite of the mud. She tells of her relationships with diferent people and how they have influenced her life. She seems to be a very loving, loyal friend. She talks alot about mothers and daughters especially her wonderful relationship with her mother and her daughter. Good read.

I do not really care to hear about the private lives of most Hollywood celebrities. However, I do like biographies about how people worked hard, overcame their mistakes, and succeeded--and that is exactly this book!I was actually quite surprised that I liked this book so well. Goldie was down to earth and not ditsy! She uses her life stories to give life advice. Some people may not like the advice; and some said that in GR reviews. I thought most of her advice was right on and I think all the
