Dreaming of Diana: The dreams Diana, Princess of Wales, inspired [Hardcover]

Rita Frances (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 15, 1999

Diana, Princess of Wales, was many things to many people: fairytale princess; role model; victim; goddess; neurotic; publicity seeker; mother; daughter and friend. Her image penetrated our psyches as no other public figure had done before. This book explores the way in which Diana moved ordinary people who had never met her, some who loved her, and others who disliked her. In this collection of dreams, ordinary people find parallels in their own lives with that of a woman who led a life most of us cannot imagine. This book may be about Diana, but it is more about us. There are no psychologists to interpret the dreams, no media pundits, political analysis or royal watchers imparting their wisdom. There are only dreamers, dreaming of Diana, and their dreams tell a fascinating story.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thought-provoking, March 19, 2001

This review is from: Dreaming of Diana: The dreams Diana, Princess of Wales, inspired (Hardcover)

This was a very interesting read in the light of my own experience. My e-mail address was mistaken for Prince Williams's two years ago, and I was flooded with e-mails. To read my story, and the e-mails I received, visit http://members.tripod.co.uk/willnot

This review is from: Dreaming of Diana: The dreams Diana, Princess of Wales, inspired (Hardcover)

This is more than your average "picture book" on Princess Diana. It's an unbiased account of the many dreams of Diana from people of all walks of life - some of them admirers of Diana, others who never gave her a passing thought. Many people dreamt about her all on the same night BEFORE they knew she had passed away. Diana has entered our collective consiousness more than we realize. This is also a very uplifting book instead of just being one of the run of the mill tribute books.

4.0 out of 5 stars A dramatically diffirent Diana book., November 16, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Dreaming of Diana: The dreams Diana, Princess of Wales, inspired (Hardcover)

The book explores how Diana affected and still effects our psychic lives. The response to her death nor the public's interest during her life, can be explained only by her beauty or royalty or even her humanitarian pursuits.

Diana touches deep cords within us. When reading this book, you could well remember one of your own Diana dreams that you had forgotten. I hope more is written on this subject in the future.
