Book Reviews of Edie: American Girl

Book Review: Edie in the Round
Summary: 5 Stars

A truely original way to write a biography. The author interviewed many of the people who knew Edie. I watched Caio Manhattan at the same time. The book really helped explain what was going on behind the scenes in the movie. The best thing about this book is the photographs. I read "In My Blood" by John Sedgwick, Edie's cousin, at the same time and found myself going back and forth from his narratives to look at the photographs in Edie. They make good companion volumes.

Summary of Edie: American Girl

When Edie was first published a decade ago, it quickly became an international bestseller. In the sixties Edie Sedgwick exploded into the public eye like a comet--aristocratic, glamorous, and Andy Warhol's superstar. Then at 28 her light fizzled and died from a drug overdose. Alternately thrilling, tragic and horrifying, this book shatters many myths about the American sixties. Photographs.
