Book Reviews of Jokes My Father Never Taught Me: Life, Love, and Loss with Richard Pryor
Book Review: A real insight
Summary: 4 Stars
Rain paints an honest portrait of her dad Richard Pryor. She does not try to gloss over his faults and does not look back through rose tinted glasses but tells the story Pryor's almost Jekyll and Hyde personality, his insane temper, his violence toward every woman in his life and his spiralling addictions to drugs and alcohol. Although not brilliantly written it does show his (eluisve) tender side toward his children as well as looking how Pryor's behaviour effected his ex parterns and his children. If you are a fan of Pryor's it is a good read. If you are curious about his life and want to know the off stage man it will both upset and amaze you.
