Title: More than I ever wanted or needed to know about Frank Rich.
Review: Frank Rich's greatest contribution to the American Theater was leaving it. Why anyone would want to read this self-serving, self-glorifying thing amazes me. I'm embarrassed to say I read it. I read an advance copy lent to me by a friend who got it for free. Because I'm a speed reader I didn't waste too much of my time. I've been a lifelong theatregoer and I saw many of the plays Frank Rich reviewed. He was a pompous, pretentious critic and even though I can't deny I like some of the think pieces he now does for The New York Times, his memoir is a bore. If Mr. Rich were reviewing this it would close opening night.
Is the review positive or negative?
