Recenzii

"I can think of few biographies that are as unputdownable as a novel, but Selina Hastings has produced one: fluidly written, witty, detached yet utterly gripping-deeply touching: a triumph of the biographer's art" Spectator "A funny and marvellously readable study of a woman who was incurably addicted to love" Independent on Sunday "Finely textured, exceptionally perceptive and wonderfully readable-the best possible tribute; an understanding, clear-eyed portrait" Sunday Telegraph "So intelligently written that you linger over the phrasing, her account blends wit, mischief, gossip, acuity and admiration... Shrewd, relaxed, understanding, stylish and not to be missed" Sunday Times "Careful and sympathetic - striking a delicate balance between factual detail and evocative description" Scotsman
