I have read her first four books and this was an interesting read.An outspoken thinker, a celebrated actress,a truely independent woman Shirley goes beyond her previos two best sellers to take us on an intimate yet powerful journey into her personal life and inner self.
An intense,clandestine love affair with a prominent politician sparks Shirley's quest of self discovery. From Stockholm Sweden to Hawaii to the mountain vastness of Peru,from disbelief to radiant affirimation,she at last discovers the roots of her ver existance and the infinite possibilities of life.
Shirley opens her heart to discover the meaning of a grea and enduring passion with her lover gerry;the mystery of her soul's connection with her best friend David; the tantalizing secrets behind a great actor's inspiration with the late Peter Sellers.
