CANADA

Actor/comedian Mike Myers presides over his own audiobook--and who else could give us such a treat? There are no embellishments, just Myers affably reading his work, which is a deft spin on the celebrity memoir. Myers frames his life and career thus far within his Canadian identity. Celebrating Canadian history and events in his current home, the U.S., Myers notes that his separation from Canada in 1983 has considerably altered his identify. Of course, as a professional entertainer, Myers has stories to tell. He delivers anecdotes of his years at Chicago's Second City and the realization of his dream of performing on "Saturday Night Live." As Myers himself clarifies in this thoroughly entertaining work, despite his many professional hats, he's first and foremost a Canadian.
