Product Description

A funny, fierce, imaginative memoir chronicling New York Times bestselling author and Academy Award winner Shirley MacLaine’s remarkable experiences filming Wild Oats in the Canary Islands and the extraordinary memories her time there brought forth of a past life on the lost continent of Atlantis.Her agent told her not to get on the plane. The male leads weren’t even cast. The financing was shaky at best. The script had been re-written countless times. And yet something about Wild Oats lured Shirley MacLaine to the film’s location shoot in the far-off Canary Islands—and straight to the center of one of the most thrilling and paradigm-shifting adventures of her life. The making of the film reads like a screwball comedy, as the cast and crew face unpredictable daily obstacles with ingenuity, grit, and personal sacrifice. Yet the chaos leads Shirley to a revelatory new understanding of the demise of one of history’s most elusive yet endlessly intriguing places. Scholars have long theorized that Spain’s Canary Islands are the remnants of the mighty lost continent of Atlantis. As the movie set descends into pandemonium, Shirley finds fascinating corollaries between the island’s cataclysmic fate and our own dangerous trajectory. Can we learn the lessons the citizens of Atlantis failed to comprehend? The answer is borne out of recovered memories from Shirley’s past life on Atlantis and through a series of meditations that reveal the necessity of unfettered imagination when looking for bold new truths, rendering this evocative memoir essential reading for anyone seeking a broader understanding of what it means to be human—both where we came from and where we are going.

I loved this book thoroughly. I enjoyed Shirley MacLaine inviting me into her life to let me imagine being with her on yet another fun adventure. It was fun to be let in on this movie-making experience. She describes the many different personalities she interacts with in a way that makes them real and easy to imagine. I have much respect for Ms. MacLaine. She is a great writer. It is always hard for me to put her books down. I love her sense of humor, her independence, her intelligence, and her lack of fear in the face of so many skeptics. She is such an inspiration to be so active and "young" in her senior years (but we know spirit has no age). Thank you, Ms. MacLaine for your books that have given me so much enjoyment and, much of which, are in alignment with my experiences and beliefs.
