My Story

"Here at last is Amy Fisher's story - revealed by one of the only two people who know the truth about the events that led to that terrible May day on Long Island when Amy Fisher's gun went off and a bullet smashed into the head of Mary Jo Buttafuoco. ("Even lying there - shot, bleeding - Mary Jo had grabbed Joey's T-shirt. I yanked it out of her hand.") Joey Buttafuoco, Mary Jo's husband, has denied that he ever had an affair with Amy, as she alleges. Amy has said that he set her up as a prostitute ("I started to have trouble keeping my food down on days I had customers"), and that he was intimately involved in the plot to murder his wife ("Joey said not to call him afterward. He'd call me"). Joey has denied these allegations. Currently serving a five-to-fifteen-year sentence for first-degree assault ("If you're a celebrity prisoner, they make life very tough on you"), Amy has finally told her side of the story, in full and fascinating detail, to veteran journalist Sheila Weller." "The lurid tale of sex, money, teenage prostitution, murder for hire, drugs, suicide attempts, divorce, and pornographic videotapes has rocked the country and scarred the affluent Long Island, New York, communities where the Fishers and the Buttafuocos live. Mary Jo's health is shattered, Joey Buttafuoco's image has suffered, the Fishers have filed for divorce, Amy is in prison - and the aftershocks of this volatile case continue to grip the nation. Amy Fisher, who says she made love with "Joey B." in her parents' home, in a motel, in the apartment above his body shop, and on his boat - Double Trouble - remembers the good times..."I went to the appointed place, waited until I saw the Double Trouble chugging up, shooting foam on either side. As Joey cruised in and lifted me on board, I felt like Grace Kelly with Bing Crosby in that old movie where they sang 'True Love.'"" "What are the real secrets of this high-school truant and runaway who left Mary Jo Buttafuoco lying on her front porch in a pool of blood? Everyone has an opinion about Amy Fisher. To some, she's the living nightmare of suburban America; to others, she's a traumatized victim of abuse, and a plaything of ruthless adults who used her for their salacious pleasure. Here, at last, Amy Fisher's shocking and heartwrenching story is completely revealed...."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
