I loved this book
mostly because, in its stunning way, it brought to my attention that what we take for granted these days, that in the twenties and thirties, were only what the very rich were able to enjoy - cars, telephones, water skis, pet lions, openly gay friends, etc
some of the anecdotes in the book are incredible, like the time her lioness took a disliking to one of the workers, and the consequences that unfolded....
some people say that the inordinate amount of name dropping is a bit hard to bear, but in my mind, as its such an unusual book, the name dropping is really just par for the course.
Her mother was a fantastic woman - I loved her maxim: "Never be ill, never be afraid, and never be jealous"
when I can remember who I loaned this book too, I will get it back and read it again.
