Diana: the Last Year

0/5 ( ratings)

2 cassettes / 3 hours
Read by Claire Bloom
In the first hours after the news of Diana's death shocked the world, major media outlets from CNN to NBC turned to Donald Spoto for help in articulating the meaning of the tragedy and understanding its effect on the British monarchy, the worldwide public who admired and loved her, and, most important, her own family.Now, in Diana: The Last Year, Spoto tells for the first time the complete story of a woman both driven by a philanthropic desire to relieve suffering and change the world for the better, and determined to make up for a youth taken from her, at the age of 19, when she entered the House of Windsor.

Diana's final year was in many ways the most fascinating and insightful of her life. It was a turbulent period in which she formally severed her marriage to the heir to the British throne, fell in love with Dodi al-Fayed, and truly began to come into her own after years of personal adversity. Like a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis, Diana in her last year was recreating her public and private self.
