In memoriam. Anne Heche’s death following a fiery car crash has fostered a renewed interest in her book, Call Me Crazy — and the price point is steep.
The late star’s 2001 memoir, which detailed her mental health journey, childhood abuse and high-profile relationship with Ellen DeGeneres, is listed for $749 by one Amazon reseller. When the book was first released it went for $26, according to Publishers Weekly.
The Amazon product is described as a “collectible” that has been “inscribed” by Heche, per the official listing. The price for the used book has also increased on other online retailers, with The Hollywood Reporter noting on Monday, August 15, that the New York Times bestseller was for sale at $200 before jumping to $499 over the weekend on one site.
Us Weekly confirmed on Friday, August 12, that the Another World alum was declared legally dead after an accident one week prior let her comatose and on a ventilator. Following her death at age 53, fans and friends alike paid tribute to the late actress.
Emily Bregl, for her part, sang Heche’s praises as an actress and an author, bringing to the forefront the brilliance of the Volcano star’s memoir.
Bregl, who worked with the Ohio native on Men in Trees, recalled being asked on many occasions, “’You worked with crazy Anne Heche?’ ‘So how crazy was she?’” The Shameless alum, 47, noted via Instagram on Friday that the “curiosity” surrounding Heche was more than “any other famous person” she’s worked with.
She then shared what her go-to answer was regarding the type of person Heche was both on and off set. “Anne was not only a genius, but one of the most astoundingly focused and prepared actors I’ve ever worked with. I don’t think I ever saw her miss her mark,” Bregl
