Perhaps this book will not make John McEnroe nicer, but I found it a good way to get to know him and the tennis environment to which his name is inextricably linked.

It’s not gonna change anyone’s life, and it’s not necessarily a book I’d recommend to a large group of people.Un uomo fortunato, per carità, con alle spalle una famiglia che lo ha sostenuto ed indirizzato, ma pur sempre un uomo. In this second memoir written by John McEnroe, “But Seriously” fails to meet the standard reached in his first book, “You Cannot Be Serious. But Seriously is a cocktail lounge chat, full of tales from McEnroe’s 21st century life, be it as Manhattan resident, father of six, husband of singer Patty Smyth, son of two driven parents, art collector, musical dabbler, TV movie guest and, most significantly, that rarity, a tennis player with cross-over cache .

McEnroe's own playing career is spliced with talk about today's great players; his tennis commentating merges into other broadcasting interests; this happens mid paragraph, even mid sentence. This book also shows how much of a family man he is and despite his relationships, his adoration of his children is expressed.
