Why Carole R. did not include her early LOYAL friends in her life and wedding... 2. Why intelligent people would not immediately seek treatment for a recurrence... 3. Why she would turn to another man for sex when her husband lay dying... 4. Why she does not now help other people with all her millions instead of petty gossiping about fashionistas...? (  )1  m.belljackson | Aug 10, 2021 |  ) baruthcook | Aug 26, 2020 | ) CatherineBurkeHines | Nov 28, 2018 | Carole was an accomplished journalist, and and Emmy winner for one series she did that was very good, From the Killing Fields. I expected this book to be the usual memoir about JFK, but it wasn't. It is one of the best books that I've ever read that speaks about grief and loss. She tells their story, Anthony's death and the death of JFK Jr and Carolyn Bessette, but she weaves her words in such a beautiful way that can only be understood by those who have lost someone who was a piece of themselves. It's beautiful is how raw it is, but still gentle. It's lovely, go read it. (  ) ChavalaMerit | Jul 23, 2018 | sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

A memoir about a girl from a working class town who becomes an award-winning television producer and marries a prince, Anthony Radziwill, nephew of John F. Kennedy. Carole DiFalco Radziwill grew up in a suburb with a large, eccentric cast of characters. At the age of nineteen, she struck out for New York. Her career at ABC News led her to the refugee camps of Cambodia, a bunker in Tel Aviv, and the scene of the Menendez murders. Her marriage led her into the old world of European nobility and the newer world of American aristocracy. The book begins with loss and returns to loss: a plane plunges into the ocean, carrying Anthony's cousin John Kennedy and Carolyn Bessette Kennedy, Carole's closest friend. Three weeks later, Anthony dies of cancer. Radziwill explores the complexities of marriage, the importance of friendship, and the challenges of self-invention with unflinching honesty.--From publisher description.

This is a story of her ten-year journey with her husband who struggled with incurable cancer. He died shortly after John, his wife and her sister died in a plane piloted by John who flew his plane under unfavorable weather conditions. She lost the love of her life, her best friend, and her husband's cousin and best friend, all in a short period of time.
While heart felt and well written, I struggled with all the stories of the lush life of NYC, the gowns, the parties, the many foreign vacations the four of them went together.
Worth the read, but it took awhile to sort through it all. (
