Clinton's memoir is well-written, packed with details and about 200 pages too long.(Knight Ridder Newspapers)
Byline: John Mark Eberhart
``My Life'' by Bill Clinton; Alfred A. Knopf ($35)
___
Too much of a good thing.
Bill Clinton's ``My Life'' is like the weeks of hype that preceded it: often interesting, sometimes vexing, definitely overabundant.
With 957 pages of narrative and a thorough index, the nation's 42nd president finds room to write about everything: the death of his biological father, the hot temper of his stepdad, his bragging about Arkansas watermelons at the moment he first was spied by a lass named Hillary Rodham, and being elected president in 1992 and 1996.
And, yes, something about a woman named Monica.
