It happened at a meeting with an acquaintance. We meet at my favourite bookstore, Assouline, London. After a quick tour of the interiors of the house, the spine of a book named Lee Radziwill, drew my attention immediately from a large bookshelf.
I grabbed the hardback with no hesitation and purchased that evening. One of the reasons it hightened my curiosity was that she was married to Stanislaw Radziwill, who was a cousin of my great-grandmother. As a bonus it’s a tasteful journey through decades of great style, and an interesting historical account of a well-connected socialite during the JFK era. Flicking through the pages, you’ll discover the chronicle of Lee’s life, captured in photos from her private archives. Hanging out with her sister Jackie O., and surrounded by equally influential personalities such as Mick Jagger, Truman Capote, Rudolph Nureyev and Aristotle Onassis to name a few, helps propel Lee’s story to a truly inspirational read.
