How did a kid whose dad lived in the poorhouse become the most successful storyteller in the world? This "fizzing, funny, often deeply moving" (Daily Mail) #1 New York Times bestselling memoir is "damn near addictive. I loved it . . . that Patterson guy can write!" (Ron Howard)James Patterson's best stories are the stories of his life.On the morning he was born, he nearly died.His dad grew up in the Pogey- the Newburgh, New York, poorhouse.He worked at a mental hospital in Massachusetts, where he met the singer James Taylor and the poet Robert Lowell.While he toiled in advertising hell, James wrote the ad jingle line "I'm a Toys 'R' Us Kid."He once watched James Baldwin and Norman Mailer square off to trade punches at a party.He's only been in love twice. Both times are amazing. Dolly
