Book Reviews of Dancing with Demons: The Authorized Biography of Dusty Springfield
Book Review: A NEEDED BOOK.
Summary: 5 Stars
In this book an old friend gives her rememberances of Dusty Springfield, and offers up other friends memories which she filters through to the pages of statistics and gossip and yes....truths....which needed to be told. Vicki, perhaps knowing her for so long, misses the magic.
I certainly hope this is just one simple building block to a real biography that will better explain how fame, the church and being gay would defeat her for a time until the last years of her life. She spent those in true grace.
