Surrender the Pink

By: Carrie Fisher

Narrated by: Carrie Fisher

In this humorous and bittersweet story, soap opera writer Dinah Kaufman attempts to force herself back into the life of her hugely successful playwright ex-husband.

The victim of a painful past and a fatherless childhood, Dinah is searching for love that will last—or at least—a reasonable facsimile that comes with a warranty. Two years after the breakup of her marriage to the award-winning playwright, Dinah remains in limbo, not genuinely wanting him back but lacking a satisfying stand-in. She finds it hard to relinquish the "pink" girlish fantasy that a man will secure her happily ever after. When she fights to hold on to that now-extinct romance, Dinah finds herself in a variety of wild predicaments.

Carrie Fisher with her love stories

I love the fact that she narrated her own works and she is so honest about such personal things. The absence of her father takes such a toll on her.

Witty and Well Written

Quick, fun read by one of my favorites. Wasn’t a lot to the story, but she’s so masterful with words, I just enjoy her banter.

She never fails to make me laugh out loud!

Surrender the Pink is another triumph for Carrie Fisher. When I wasn't laughing I was sitting on the edge of my seat screaming "No, don't do it Dinah!". Love this book!

I laughed so hard that I cried. What a great book!

This is an absolutely hilarious book and I have a depreciation for Carrie’s sense of humor and amazing use of language. I read this and her other books including her brother’s autobiography and I’m going to read her Mother’s next. I hope her daughter will write a book because I look forward to reading her perspective of her very interesting life with an amazing mother not a perfect mother, but amazing on many levels.

5 stars all around
