Queen of Fashion: What Marie Antoinette Wore to the Revolution by Caroline Weber
Queen of Fashion: What Marie Antoinette Wore to the Revolution

krickcrak, November 13, 2006

A great, gossipy biography of a subject who has been addressed over and over again. I couldn't help drawing parallels to Princess Di. Antoinette was a powerless person who made herself an icon but didn't see the shifts in popular opinion, or perhaps didn't care. Presents an interesting angle.

Margherita Dolce Vita by Stefano Benni
Margherita Dolce Vita

krickcrak, November 13, 2006

What starts out as a romp with a 14 yr old girl with a bad heart and an eccentric family ends as an attempted totalitarian take-over that happens as quickly and unexpectedly as an airplane stuck in a tower. It starts out charming you and ends haunting you.
