5.0 out of 5 stars A haunting and beautiful book., July 29, 1998

By A Customer

Requiem: Diana, Princess of Wales is a beautiful and moving book. While it contains no photographs (except for the cover), it is full of moving tributes and personal accounts of Diana from her friends and many well-known British and American journalists. It also contains various excerpts from newspapers and magazines in the days immediately following her death. Some of the accounts by her friends made you feel like you knew her just that little bit more and also made you wonder what she would have gone on to accomplish had she lived. As I read, I found myself rereading many of the tributes before going on to the next. This is a book I will keep and treasure and undoubtedly reread over the years.

5.0 out of 5 stars this is the most moving book I've ever read, September 18, 1999

By	Tamara Whitman (Collinsville, Illinois United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

at least in a very long time. I picked up the book as soon as received and had a difficult time putting it down. Its been a long time (over 2 years) since Diana's passing but this book made it feel like it was last month. All the feelings and emotions came flooding back & made me remember what a great loss this was to the world. Obviously the writers of the essays etc had very strong emotions towards Princess Diana. The feeling of love for this lady comes pouring out of each story.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best Diana books i've read and ive read some!, November 16, 1998

By	(Neil) [e-mail] (California USA) - See all my reviews

While dozens of pictorial testimonials to Princess Diana have already appeared Requiem offers more than eighty written tributes and recollections. Dont buy this book for pictures it leaves that to others. But this 43 year old does not mind saying the tributes and recollections moved him to tears. If you are a Diana fan this book is a must have.
