OF CARICATURES, CHARACTERS & CHARACTER - ROBERT LaSARDO DOESN’T HOLD BACK ANY PUNCHES!!!
Picture this – a memoir that doesn’t hold back any punches. And, that goes towards both the person reading and the person who penned “Life Sentence: A True Story About Love, Lunacy and Fame”.
Anyone who has ever seen actor Robert LaSardo, either on television or film will never forget him. His look is as distinctive as a ruby in a drifting dune of white sand. Accentuated by the vibrancy of body art which adorns him, this actor’s performances go deeper beyond skin. He gets under your skin and leaves an impression with every character he plays. His persona is enigmatic, for which there is no doubt. When he is before that rolling camera, there is a sense of a mutual tango between lens to actor and outward to the viewer.
In this memoir, Robert LaSardo places his arm around the reader’s shoulder and leads us on a walk through dark alleys of uncontrollable circumstances, to sun-soaked boulevards of adulation and detours onto side-streets of self destruction. Writing in such a conversational style, Robert LaSardo gives the reader a scintillating, yet sobering self assessment of a life of success, excess and recalibration for his sanity towards the future.
This writing quality gives a sense that as you read “Life Sentence”, the reader and Mr. LaSardo are seated across from one another having a drink of mineral water or tea. But, then again, parts of this book might just require one reading it to sip something far more potent to parallel the prose upon the pages.
Courage isn’t spinning the mirror outward, but turning it inward to see yourself. For that, Robert LaSardo has shown he is a man who has an ability to unlock a cage filled with asphyxiating stereotypes and caricatures which others have attempted to dilute him into a being of singular dimension. Chameleons have an uncanny ability of adaptation, which goes the same for artist Robert LaSardo.
Robert LaSardo is a fighter. His ring is the profession which has chosen him. He is an artist.
As you become enthralled in this exploration of the life of Robert LaSardo, there is a sense of pugilistic solace which is captured in his words and conveyed to the reader. Tenacity! Thy name is LaSardo!
Amongst the many biographies out there that are like cotton candy, filled with vapid fluff; Robert LaSardo’s “Life Sentence: A True Story Of Love, Lunacy and Fame” is that rare steak placed before the reader’s eyes and psyche.
