The Diana Chronicles

De: Tina Brown

Narrado por: Tina Brown

Ten years after her death, Princess Diana remains a mystery. Was she "the people's princess", who electrified the world with her beauty and humanitarian missions? Or was she a manipulative, media-savvy neurotic who nearly brought down the monarchy?

Only Tina Brown, former editor-in-chief of Tatler, England's glossiest gossip magazine, as well as Vanity Fair and The New Yorker, could possibly give us the truth. Tina knew Diana personally and has far-reaching insight into the royals and the Queen.

In The Diana Chronicles, you will meet a formidable female cast and understand as never before the society that shaped them. Among them are Diana's sexually charged mother, bad-girl sister-in-law Fergie, and, most formidable of them all, her mother-in-law, the Queen. Add Camilla Parker Bowles, the ultimate "other woman", into this combustible mix, and it's no wonder that Diana broke out of her royal cage into celebrity culture, where she found her own power and used it to devastating effect.

Informative and Interesting

This book gives insight to a compelling but disturbed woman and her complex life from someone who knew her, if only a bit.

not worth finishing

it was very one sided and dragged the way the author described Diana life was blaming her for her predicaments some that she in my opinion did not have control over. I did not even finish it

Too Fast

Good story but i struggled to understand the words at times because the author talked way too fast.
