Synopsis
Celebrated editor Tina Brown reveals Princess Diana's tumultuous inner life as no one else has.
Ten years after her mysterious death in Paris, Princess Diana continues to haunt our imaginations. Now Tina Brown, who knew Diana personally, brings a fresh perspective to the questions that continue to surround the woman who became a beloved cultural icon. Was she "the people's princess," who electrified the world not only with her beauty, but with her moving humanitarian missions? Or was she a media-savvy neurotic, who nearly brought down the monarchy? As the former editor of Vanity Fair and The New Yorker, and as a fellow Englishwoman, Tina Brown brings a much needed authority and understanding to Diana's compelling story.
The Washington Post - Diana McLellan
Diana's tragicomedy is Shakespearean in scale, with its slippery royal machinations, its agonized ironies, its seething jealousies and heartbreaking inevitability. Brown is no Shakespeare. But she gives us a walloping good read.
