Review
"Boy, you think you know a guy! I worked six solid years with Bryan Cranston and figured there weren’t any secrets left between us. All those hours I spent watching him wander the desert in his underpants? That alone should make me an expert on the man. But now, along comes A Life In Parts – and suddenly I’m reading about a whole other Bryan, one who performs weddings in airplanes and camps out at mortuaries. This Bryan bathes in the blood of chickens and stuffs mackerels in air vents. He even accosts poor Alfred Hitchcock. Yes, it’s all in here. Better still, there’s an exceedingly honest discussion of his craft, which will be a godsend to struggling thespians everywhere. Think your job waiting tables sucks? One of the world’s greatest actors had it worse (what with being under suspicion for murder and all). I loved this book. It’s just the right mixture of funny, sad and heartfelt. If I’d known Bryan could tell stories this well, I would have had him writing episodes of Breaking Bad."--Vince Gilligan“This splendid, moving, heartbreaking memoir is doubly triumphant. It regales and entertains while at the same time providing inspiration and practical wisdom. A truly gifted storyteller, Cranston captures the reader's imagination and emotions from beginning to end.”—Doris Kearns Goodwin “Bryan Cranston has created a cinematic record of how an actor shapes a career and an identity and a legacy all at the same time.” –Tom Hanks"The highs here—and there are many—are meth-less but addictive."--Kirkus Reviews"[A] substantial memoir from one of Hollywood’s most introspective stars...anyone interested in acting will devour Cranston’s savvy advice about honing one’s craft and building one’s career."--Booklist"By turns gritty,funny, and sad, this fiercely intelligent book from the Breaking Bad star defies celebrity memoir tropes."--Entertainment Weekly"Cranston fuses his personal and professional life in a way that’s nothing short of riveting....an engrossing first-person account by one of our finest actors."--Huffington Post"[A] must-read memoir."--Philadelphia Inquirer"A literary cup that runneth over: A candid portrait of a great actor."--Newsday"Deeply personal...the way in which Cranston's simple, staccato prose invites readers to empathize with every 'character' he's played elevates this autobiography to more than just a look behind the scenes--it's a look behind a life."--Publishers Weekly

I purchased "A Life in Parts" with a mixture of excitement and dread because one never knows how an author - let alone an ex-spouse - will portray certain aspects of his life. I came away with a sense of relief and confirmation that - yes, Bryan is still the Bryan I knew when our meals consisted of whatever he could bring home from his job as a waiter or the 1,000 ways of preparing the bags of zucchini his mother left on our doorstep. The book reads...like Bryan.Bryan's writing is unaffected by fame and fortune and is his own voice. He tells his story clearly, with exactly the right words for the situation and the precise amount of pages devoted to each "part" of his life. If his book seems to devote little to Breaking Bad or Malcom in the Middle, it's because those are just parts of the whole that is Bryan Cranston. The book is honest, witty, sensitive, funny, unapologetic, and heartbreaking. And that, too, is Bryan Cranston.When reading, be prepared to laugh and cry, for this is a story of a man who came from sad circumstances, made the best of what he had (incredible talent), and stayed true to his dream. The book is a fast read, but you will find yourself picking it back up and rereading parts to experience them again and again. Bryan Cranston is a man who continues to live a life in parts, and it is my privilege to have been one such part.
I found this to be a fascinating book, cover-to-cover. There is a lot to love.Bryan wrote fairly short chapters, each describing an aspect of his life (i.e. a "part"). Bryan's childhood experiences (he had a rough childhood) were fascinating. The experiences that led him to want to do well at acting were equally fascinating. His experiences as an actor were also fascinating. His romances (some of which didn't end well) were also a great read. Bryan in places discusses his shortcomings--I admire him for being so candid.For you Breaking Bad fans ... yes, he does talk in detail about the show.As an electrical engineer who does software, I found his stories about acting as a vocation to be fascinating because they are so ... different than engineering. For example, he talks about the cast and crew crying and hugging each other after the filming of a very emotional scene or when filming the final episodes after a show has been cancelled (and they know they won't work together for very much longer). (That sort of crying and hugging does not occur in engineering LOL.)
This is the most honest memoir that I've ever read. Bryan Cranston bares his mind and soul to the point the reader can feel his anguish, his concerns, his victories as well as enjoy him laughing at himself over some of the most ludicrous moments. This would make an incredible autobiographical film about someone who wills himself to be successful at a vocation in which his father failed. He reflects on both his success and failures refusing to take shortcuts wanting to always to represent honestly his trade. Even as he was sometimes critical of his life he was careful to not paint others in a bad light but present them as they were: a father never realizing his success, always chasing windmills and a mother, heart broken over her husband's leaving, becoming a bitter alcoholic with several failed relationships while trying to replace her departed husband. If there was one failure in the book it was the lack of details about Robin, his wife, and his daughter. Obviously he is proud and devoted to both but I'm sure they both had their moments of be disappointing (they are both human, after all). I'm already looking forward to the sequel of his life going forward or, if not that, a further study of the Cranston philosophy in making life the best it can be. This was a thoroughly delightful book to read.
I "Like" it because it's a good read. I might have "Loved" it, except I actually wish I hadn't read it at all. Here's why: I realize I like my favorite performers to be a blank slate. If I know too much about their politics or their process as a performer (the latter being the case with this book), it begins to get in the way of my enjoyment of the actor's work. I'd rather NOT know, for example, that Cranston was unhappy with a particular "Breaking Bad" scene. Sometimes a little mystery is a good thing.
If you told me I could sit down for lunch with any 3 people in all of history, Brian Cranston would be one of those people. This momoir solidified that belief. This book was emotional, hilarious, and inspirational. It was a beautifully written and constructed book that I couldn't put down (you don't say that for many memoirs). His life is truly a life in parts and the book was written that way. Such an interesting life, coming from a man with an abstract yet down to earth take on that life. I recommend this read to anyone, fan or not. 5/5.
I recently listened to this on a long drive. This was my first book of this type but I am very happy to have given it a shot. The author has a great voice for this and keeps the reading lively and never dull. Being from California myself, it was nice to know a lot of the places referred to in the book. I am not an actor but I very much appreciated the insight into being one and what goes into it from the author's artistic view. My sister is an actor and I feel like I learned a lot about that world from this book. Brian also has had an interesting life aside from his acting. This was a pleasure to listen to.
This was such an entertaining and insightful book. I have always enjoyed Bryan Cranston's work. He is talented and a consummate actor. Who knew he was also a fantastic storyteller? A story filled with humor but also sadness as Mr. Cranston relieves his childhood and parents' broken dreams. It's an honest portrayal of the experiences and struggles he faced that made him the man and talent he is today. It's not your typical bio in the sense that it doesn't chronologically recount every aspect of his life. Rather, Mr. Cranston poignantly touches the most important parts of his backstory while beautifully weaving in the laughter and life lessons this history embodies. This is a must read and is hard to put down.
