À propos du livre
This final volume of Audrey's collected memoirs spans the years of her second marriage, to Paul Chancellor, who penned affectionate poems lauding her character; their experiences watching a whale reduced to blubber and a new island born of an erupting volcano during a trip to Iceland and Greenland; the tale of how she broke her ankle in Scotland; travels throughout India, Nepal and Kashmir; visiting the Pacific Northwest and reconnecting with her friend Olga, a Russian countess and lady-in-waiting to Alexandra (wife of Tsar Nicholas); adventures in Morocco -- from the train ride interrupted by a film production, to the Casablanca hotel where Churchill meet with Roosevelt in 1943, to the dye pits in Fez; and so much more, through her second widowhood, the illness that almost took her from us, and project that motivated her to summon the will to live.
