( ) So good of her -- for her own & for the readers' sakes -- to out that sick-o Roth. Art (under which undeniably his work can SOMETIMES be categorized) can at times require a sub-human artist. This I've always suspected about Roth. Gave up on him in the 80's as a hopeless misogynist, but recently read American Pastoral which was brilliant & decided to give him another chance -- but not before reading Claire Bloom's accounting. This, undoubtedly will colour any further reading & may indeed put a stop to all Roth on my reading list. I gave this memoir 4 stars just because of the guts it must have taken to reveal the nightmare that was/is Roth. Otherwise, it would have gotten TWO stars, as it revealed very little of the rest of her life & was very emotionally detached & perfunctory. Bravo Ms Bloom -- onward & upward & best of luck to you and your daughter. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
In this memoir of personal discovery, loss and renewal, Claire Bloom looks beyond the stage and unveils her true identity. One of the most beautiful and gifted actresses of her generation, Claire Bloom's achievements in theatre and television have been celebrated throughout the world. Bloom traces her fatherless years in the 1930s to her apprenticeship in the British theatre and her rise as an actress in Charles Chaplin's Limelight before she was 20. She recounts professional and personal relationships with Laurence Olivier, John Gielgud, Anthony Hopkins and Paul Schofield, and tells of her long entanglement with Richard Burton. She recalls failed marriages to Rod Steiger and Hillard Eskins, and the book concludes with a stark account of the most important relationship of her life, with writer Philip Roth.
