After a long and storied career in some of TV and film’s most iconic roles, Rob Lowe has learned a thing or two about what constitutes a life well-lived. In What Do I Know, he shares the kind of hard-won lessons gained only by having grappled with the good, the bad, and the ugly – and come out the other side stronger and savvier than before.   How do I know I’ve found the one? Is having kids the right decision? Do I have a drinking problem? How do I know if my career is on the rise, has plateaued, or is just settling – and when it’s time to let it go? These are just a few of the questions Lowe has grappled with over the course of his journey. Readers will find his answers to be useful, surprising, and sometimes even funny, but mostly real and honest.   With the same poignant storytelling and self-effacing humor that made Stories I Only Tell My Friends an instant classic, What Do I Know summarizes Lowe's life philosophy in a timeless package.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57680172908917,"sku":"9780241783016","price":22.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}]}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/collections\/author-rob-lowe.oembed","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
