About the Book

'A CINEMATIC RECORD OF HOW AN ACTOR SHAPES A CAREER' Tom Hanks 'FUNNY, SAD AND HEARTFELT' Vince Gilligan 'GRITTY, FUNNY AND SAD' Entertainment Weekly 'A SUPERB ANECDOTALIST' Sunday Times Culture 'RIVETING... ENGROSSING' Huffington Post BRYAN CRANSTON maps his journey from abandoned son to beloved star, recalling the many odd parts he's played in real life, and chronicles his evolution on camera. For the first time he shares the story of his early years, from his time as a soap opera regular to his recurring spots on Seinfeld and his role as bumbling father Hal on Malcolm in the Middle, along with an inspiring account of how he prepared for the award-winning role of President Lyndon Johnson. Of course, Cranston dives deep into the grittiest details of his greatest role, explaining how he searched inward for the personal darkness that would help him create one of the most memorable performances ever captured on screen: Breaking Bad's Walter White. A LIFE IN PARTS is a story about the joy, the necessity, and the transformative power of simple hard work.

Review :
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. 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. The highs here -and there are many -are meth-less but addictive. 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. By turns gritty,funny, and sad, this fiercely intelligent book from the Breaking Bad star defies celebrity memoir tropes. [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. It's an engrossing first-person account by one of our finest actors and I couldn't put it down. Fans of Breaking Bad will be glued to this riveting memoir, which looks at how he worked to create such a dark and legendary character. But long before Walter White, Bryan Cranston's life story was fascinating and dramatic. His memoir, A Life in Parts, shows him as a superb anecdotalist with an honest take on how he dealt with fame found later in life. a fascinating read and a satisfying look into Cranston's life A great guy reading his great book to you like you're both just downing session IPAs in some crack-in-the-wall bar no one else has found. Cranston's widely acclaimed memoir has been winning praise for its earnest account of a good man fighting to be the actor he always dreamed of, and his gentle, confessional honesty shines through all the more when spoken in his loveable folksy tones. Candid and richly entertaining memoir
