Recenzii
[A] vivacious fictionalised biography of Peggy Guggenheim remained unfinished when she died, too young, in 2022. Her friend and fellow author Leslie Jamison has gone on to complete it, enabling the heiress and arts patron to narrate a life full of adventure and purposefull rebellion against sexism and antisemitism. The result is a narrative rich in self-awareness, shifting enticingly from New York to London and Paris
Godfrey does full justice to the rich eccentricity of the story but, more important, she does justice to Peggy herself by giving her a voice - one that is intimate, urgent, imagistic . . . In this act of literary homage, Jamison has honoured Godfrey just as Godfrey has honoured Peggy
A vivid portrait of a tumultuous 20th century life
A rich and rewarding summer read
A fascinating portrait of a woman who was wry and brave and determined to be different. It is the result of ten years' work from the novelist Rebecca Godfrey, who died before she could finish it. Her friend Leslie Jamison wrote the final part, and has done a wonderful job of keeping the tone and flavour of the original going until the end
Proves that Peggy Guggenheim, the iconic, New York-born art collector, is deserving of a legacy beyond her curations. From Manhattan's upper echelons to a bohemian existence in Venice, the story emerges of a woman who carved out her own unrelentingly stylish path
Godfrey brilliantly resurrects the avant-garde adventurer Peggy Guggenheim as a feminist icon for our times
Peggy Guggeinheim embodied the twentieth century . . . Rebecca Godfrey's prose is as stylish as her protagonist and every bit as deeply sensuous, and thoughtful . . . An unparalleled life presented as a page-turner
This unique reimagining of Peggy Guggenheim's life reframes what we know about the maverick art collector . . . by tracing her legacy back to the life-changing moment she discovered, aged 14, that her father had gone down with the Titanic
A novelisation of the life of American socialite and heiress Peggy Guggenheim; from her father's death on the Titanic to her journey to become a world-renowned art collector, this is an exhilarating and absorbing portrait of a fascinating woman
The award-winning author of Under the Bridge brings to life the story of art collector Peggy Guggenheim, the daughter of two Jewish dynasties, whose cloistered life is upended at 14 when her father goes down with the Titanic. His death prompts Peggy to seek a life of passion and personal freedom, and to believe in the transformative power of art. We follow Peggy through the art worlds of New York and Europe and meet the numerous men who love her (and her money) while underestimating her intellect
Skillful . . . Guggenheim's complicated relationships with family, friends and lovers come across vividly
Intriguing and evocative
