Description
*NATIONAL BESTSELLER*
A PARADE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR
A NEW YORK POST BEST BOOK OF THE WEEK
In her first novel inspired by a true story, Jane Green re-imagines the life of troubled icon Talitha Getty in this transporting story from a forgotten chapter of the Swinging '60s


From afar Talitha's life seemed perfect. In her twenties, and already a famous model and actress, she moved from London to a palace in Marrakesh, with her husband Paul Getty, the famous oil heir. There she presided over a swirling ex-pat scene filled with music, art, free love and a counterculture taking root across the world.

When Claire arrives in London from her small town, she never expects to cross paths with a woman as magnetic as Talitha Getty. Yearning for the adventure and independence, she's swept off to Marrakesh, where the two become kindred spirits. But beneath Talitha's glamourous facade lurks a darkness few can understand. As their friendship blossoms and the two grow closer, the realities of Talitha's precarious existence set off a chain of dangerous events that could alter Claire's life forever.

        Inspired by true events, best-selling Green (The Friends We Keep) tells the story of Talitha Getty, a famous actress and model married to wealthy oil heir Paul Getty. She presides over a group of people caught up in the swinging 1960s scene of free love, art, and music. Young, sheltered Claire first meets Talitha in London, but follows her to Marrakesh and gets swept up in the glitz and glamor of the life of the young, rich, and famous found there. Soon they connect in an unexpected way, but the dark side of the lifestyle shocks Claire. This lush coming-of-age story set in a time where anything goes showcases not only the actual landscape of London and Marrakesh, but that of the countercultural scene of the 1960s. Talented narrator Fiona Hardingham deftly handles the various accents and dialects of everyone from Mick Jagger to Talitha. VERDICT Listeners will be swept up into the storytelling and the lifestyle of the '60s in which people, especially women, were free to live and love any way they chose.--Elyssa Everling

      • content: Narrator Fiona Hardingham portrays an aging woman named Claire, whose mind drifts back and forth between the present day and her memories of wilder times in the 1960s. Young, innocent Claire crosses paths with the magnetic socialite Talitha Getty one night in London. Soon, Talitha and her rich and famous friends bring Claire to Marrakesh. Claire is shocked and intrigued by their sex and drug-fueled lifestyle but is reluctant to forgo the adventure, even when a darker side is revealed. The novel is inspired by a true story, and Hardingham's lively performance depicts hedonism but also a time of tender intimacy and emotional exploration. The languid pace of a group's conversation while smoking opium contrasts with the excited shrieks of teen girls as they encounter famous musicians. A.L.C. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine
