Memoirs can be so boring, don't you think? Especially if a celeb is penning one. Generally their fans will buy the book but it's loaded with a bunch of details that have already appeared in other places. You've got to be really creative to come up with a great idea to tell your own life story and it looks like Mary-Louise Parker has done exactly that. Instead of dishing the dirty details and handing readers' a few buried secrets she is instead going to release a book of letters written to the men who have mattered the most to her.
Dear Mr. You will be released by Simon & Schuster imprint Scribner in Fall 2015. "I am so honored and thrilled to be working with Scribner and in the company of such wonderful writers," says Parker in an official statement released by Scribner. We already know that Parker is a fabulous Emmy, Tony and Golden Globe winning actress, but can she write?
According to Nan Graham, Scribner's senior vice president and publisher she most certainly can
"From Frank McCourt to Jeannette Walls to Anjelica Huston, Scribner loves a great memoirist, and Mary-Louise Parker is one. Her writing is magnificent; the conceit-a memoir in letters to men-is wholly original and brilliantly executed."
Parker has dated a long string of some of Hollywood's biggest names in the business so just the idea of what she could have to say to these men after the fact is totally intriguing to us. Are you curious to read Parker's new book? Do you think that she'll be putting former beaus, such as Billy Crudup on blast, or will she keep it classy? If Parker's book is a hit it could potentially change the way that people choose to tell their own personal story. At the very least it would encourage some to think outside of the box, right?
