Artikelbeschreibung
In this candid and unconventional memoir, Goldie Hawn invites us to join her in a look back at the remarkable people and events that have touched her. It is a joyous - and sometimes surprising - spiritual journey of the heart in search of enlightenment.
With the effervescent humour and generosity that are familiar to everyone, Goldie talks about the lessons she has learned, and the wisdom she feels she has been given, in the hope of giving something back. Not a Hollywood tell-all, A Lotus grows in the Mud is rather a very personal look at moments both private and powerful and the ways these moments have helped carry her through life: the delight in her father’s spirited spontaneity; the confidence instilled by her mother’s courage; the unexpected gifts of comfort from strangers miles from home; and the joy of being a daughter, a sister, a parent and a lover.
Goldie describes her growing up in suburbia with dreams of becoming a ballerina, her go-go dancing years in 1960s New York, her success on TV’s Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In, and Hollywood stardom in such films as the Oscar-winning Castus Flower, and Swing Shift and Private Benjamin. She writes intimately about the challenges of love, anger and fear, and the vital importance of compassion and integrity; about her partner, Kurt Russell; her children, Kate Hudson, Oliver Hudson Wyatt Russell and Boston Russell; about her growing faith, her curiosity about what she doesn’t know and her unquenchable thirst for knowledge and understanding.
Most of all, A Lotus grows in the Mud is an unforgettable trip through a life well lived by a woman well loved.
