by Barbara Seaman (Author)
This biography of Jacqueline Susann aims to discover the woman behind the legends and lies whose life was said to be flamboyant and outrageous. At the age of fifty, she saw herself as a failure and wrote a novel that would enter the Guiness Book of World Records as one of the best-selling novels of all time - Valley of the Dolls . From this, she achieved worldwide fame, becoming a celebrity to a degree that no writer had ever known before, and in her few remaining years she became one of the richest self-made women in the world - a millionaire many times over. Barbara Seaman is the author of The Doctor's Case against the Pill , Free and Female and Women and the Crisis in Sex Hormones .
