Summary

Anjelica Huston's life, once she turned 15 and moved to London, is a who's who of popular culture from the Rolling Stones in late '60s Londonto the Chelsea Hotel in New York when she was modelling in the early '70s, to Jack Nicholson and Warren Beatty in '70s and '80s Los Angeles, to Hunter Thompson in Aspen.

She is a force who has won every possible acting award, working with some of the greatest directors of her time, and a friend to many of the greatest artists, writers, actors and musicians. One could say it was a charmed life, an enviable life, and she would agree.

But it is a life also full of so much tragedy and sadness, and Huston writes about both triumph and hardship with extraordinary eloquence and depth. A stunning achievement, her memoir ranks among the best in the genre.

Wonderful, melodious voice!

The soothing voice belies a bumpy ride of a life (assuming there is more to come) as Angelica describes her gypsy upbringing amongst the famous friends of the family. Full of pathos and wry observation, it’s gripping and fascinating!

Well told

look forward to the second volume and the juicier elements of Hustons life as she matures.
