PositiveLos Angeles Times... intriguing tidbits ... But unlike many Hollywood memoirs these days, it doesn’t contain any shocking or titillating revelations ... the 84-year-old British-born actress and singer comes across pretty much as the Julie Andrews that we admire on the screen—graceful, elegant and wholesome, but not particularly complicated or troubled ... Home Work is the story of an ordinary person blessed with extraordinary gifts, including a soaring, angelic soprano voice, whose big struggle was to maintain that normalcy in a Hollywood rife with exploitation and excess ... Andrews’ portrait of [Blake] Edwards, to whom she was married until his death at age 88 in 2010, is more revealing than anything she writes about herself ... The most moving part of the book is Andrews’ account of postwar Vietnam and Cambodia, which she visited in the early 1980s as part of a humanitarian delegation ... She devotes more space and vivid detail in the book to those scenes of heart-wrenching deprivation and suffering than she gives to some of her movies ... Andrews’ refreshing unpretentiousness and gentle sense of bemusement at her life’s adventures...make Home Work a book that will appeal to fans of her films, as well as anyone who wants to be reassured that being a celebrity doesn’t have to involve scandal.
