WHO'S SORRY NOW
- The True Story of a Stand-Up Guy
Quotes
"It's touching,
it's funny, and it's interesting reading about an
unusual man whose incredible personal energy comes
through in his life stories."
"After every Sopranos season part of Joey's
wardrobe is missing. I'm not making any accusations,
in part because he gave me this book and I think
I got the better deal. It's touching, it's funny,
and it's interesting reading about an unusual man
whose incredible personal energy comes through in
his life stories, just like his restless talent
and creativity."
-David Chase,
creator of The Sopranos

"Joey Pantoliano's
wonderful book has the outside toughness of an uncracked
walnut. Inside, however, it is flavored by grace
and graciousness, love and laughter, and wit and
wisdom, with all the musical exuberance of an eccentric
Neapolitan family. There is choice Chaucerian language
here, but read on; there is raucous humor, but read
on; and there are tears too; but read on. A rollicking
good read from this extraordinarily talented young
man who sings all the notes from basso profundo
to soprano and leaves us laughing."
-Malachy McCourt,
author of the New York Times bestseller A Monk
Swimming

"Joey Pants
is not an actor. He's not a writer. He's a hero.
Herein you will find the epic tale of giants and
derring-do. Hearken unto the tragedies and triumphs
of Joey Pants's remarkable ye olde odyssey."
-Andy and Larry
Wachowski, producers, writers, and directors of
The Matrix

"Pantoliano
enters the celebrity memoir arena with a jovial
account of his 1950s and '60s youth in Hoboken and
Fort Lee, N.J. ... 'Joey Pants' writes with energy,
humor and honesty, and his passionate closing chapter,
with Joey attempting to break away from his clinging,
cursing Mommy to become a big-time actor, is the
icing on the cake."
