Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Anjelica Huston shares her enchanting childhood in Ireland, teenage years in London, and her early experiences as a model and actress in New York with a vibrant love for language and detail. Raised on an Irish estate by her glamorous mother and educated by tutors and nuns, she often visited her father during breakfast, where storytelling became her refuge. As her parents separated, she moved to London in the early sixties, encountering iconic figures like the Rolling Stones and Fleetwood Mac, and understudying Marianne Faithfull in Hamlet. At seventeen, after the tragic loss of her mother in a car crash, she relocated to New York, falling for the brilliant yet troubled photographer Bob Richardson. Living in the Chelsea Hotel and collaborating with renowned photographers like Richard Avedon, she navigated the tumultuous cultural landscape of the seventies while managing a complex relationship. The memoir concludes as Huston prepares to embark on her Hollywood career, with a follow-up volume set to explore her life in Los Angeles. This beautifully written memoir captures her journey with charm and depth, making it a true treasure.
