Josh Brolin, the acclaimed actor known for his roles in films like “No Country for Old Men” and “Dune: Part Two,” is set to release a memoir this fall that promises to be a mix of stories, anecdotes, and poems. The actor, who took a writing class with Allen Ginsberg in his early 20s, has been reflecting on his life experiences as he works on this upcoming book.
In a recently completed essay, Brolin recounts a poignant moment from his past when he and his children were chasing sheep on Scotland’s Isle of Skye, resulting in a tragic accident. This emotional story is just one of many that will be featured in his memoir.
Brolin, who grew up on a horse ranch in Paso Robles and has a deep connection to nature, has always shied away from the glitz and glamour of Hollywood. However, in recent years, he and his wife Kathryn Boyd Brolin have been renovating a charming bungalow in Malibu, turning it into a unique and art-filled space that reflects their eclectic tastes.
The couple’s home is filled with art, including pieces by both emerging and established artists, as well as vintage motorcycles and other collectibles. Brolin, who is known for his rugged on-screen persona, reveals a softer side as he discusses his love for art and the joy of sharing his collection with friends.
As he prepares to share more of his personal journey in his memoir, Brolin reflects on the unexpected twists and turns of his career, from early struggles to becoming a celebrated actor. Through it all, he remains grateful for the opportunities that have come his way and the chance to share his story with the world.
