Very Good in Very Good jacket. Theater. 4to-over 9¾"-12" tall. Very Good hardcover in a Very Good dust jacket. 218pp including index. Mesmerizing, revelatory text combines with more than two hundred photographs--most of them taken by the author--in a startling illustrated memoir that will both astonish and move you. When Dominick Dunne lived and worked in Hollywood, he had it all: a beautiful family, a glamorous career, and the friendship of the talented and powerful. He also had a camera and loved to take pictures. These photographs, which Dunne carefully preserved in more than a dozen leatherbound scrapbooks--along with invitations, telegrams, personal notes, and other memorabilia--record the parties, the glittering receptions, the society weddings, and scenes from the everyday lives of the Dunnes and those they knew, including Jane Fonda, Frank Sinatra, Paul Newman, Roddy McDowall, Elizabeth Taylor, Natalie Wood, Brooke Hayward, Jennifer Jones, and David Selznick. You'll meet them all in this fascinating book.

Esteemed novelist Dominic Dunne offers a peek behind the curtain of the beautiful people of the late 50s and 1960s - and they are all here --- all of the stars at their most glamorous and also their most casual -- from a madcap heiress, to the even then old-school Loretta Young, off to Sunday Mass in her Bentley, to Betsy Bloomingdale, to a young Nancy Reagan and an even younger Candice Bergen, all chronicled by the camera lens of Dunne. We also see him slide into alcohol and drug abuse and some apparent same-sex relations, plus the personal tragedy of the loss of his beloved daughter Dominique. If you are a fan of mid 60s glamour, like I am, and enjoy seeing how elegance was lived in Hollywood, then this is a book to treasure, a gift from Dunne's talented hands.
