内容説明
Sarah Bradford's Diana is a complex and explosive study of the greatest icon of the twentieth century.
Glamour. Duty. Tragedy: The Woman Behind the Princess.
After more than a decade interviewing those closest to the Princess and her select circle, Sarah Bradford exposes the real Diana: the blighted childhood, the old-fashioned courtship which saw her capture the Prince of Wales, the damage caused by the spectre of Camilla Parker Bowles, through to the collapse of the royal marriage and Diana's final and complicated year as single woman.
Diana paints an honest portrait of a woman riddled with contradictions and whose vulnerability and unique empathy with the suffering made her one of the most extraordinary figures of the modern age.
'Bradford has a real grasp of history and the ability to make it spark into new life' Sunday Telegraph
'Bradford's forte, ever since she was a history-mad girl, is thinking herself into other lives' Daily Telegraph
