From the godfather of mainstream film criticism and the first critic to win a Pulitzer Prize comes the eagerly anticipated memoir, "Life Itself". Roger Ebert is perhaps the most famous and powerful of American film pundits with a career that has spanned more than 40 years. Life as he knew it came to an abrupt end several years ago when he suffered complications following surgery for thyroid cancer and lost the ability to eat, drink and speak. In this moving and memorable book, Ebert writes about his remarkable life and his adjustment to the profound and all encompassing condition that he lives and works around.
