W tej biografii możemy przeczytać o dzieciństwie Jennifer Lopez, Bronxie, w którym się wychowała, pierwszych rolach serialowych: w "In Living Color" i "South Central", "Second Chances" i "Hotel Malibu".

 

Dalej, biografia zawiera: pierwsze, większe hollywoodzkie produkcje filmowe ("Pociąg z forsą" ,"Jack"), i tytułowa rola Seleny w filmie odpowiadającym o życiu przedwcześnie zmarłej piosenkarki. Kolejne propozycje filmowych ról w produkcjach takich jak: "Anakonda", "U-Turn", "Out Of Sight" oraz "Cela". Opisano też związek małżeński z Ojanim Noą, rozpad małżeństwa i romans z Puff Daddy'm. Rozpoczęcie kariery muzycznej i wydanie pierwszej płyty "On The 6". W końcu burzliwe życie z Seanem Combsem (Puff Daddy) i słynna strzelanina w jednym z klubów na Manhattanie.

Książkę - jako, że jest ona z 2000 roku - wieńczy: okres drugiej płyty "J.Lo", prace nad filmem "Angel Eyes" oraz małżeństwo z Crisem Juddem.

Biografię czyta się szybko. Ma ona swoje gorsze strony, głównie kiedy autorka za bardzo zaczyna się rozpisywać na temat życiorysów innych postaci, z którymi Lopez się spotkała (aktorów, jej partnerów). Trochę to chwilami irytowało.

 

Plusem książki jest wkładka z ładnymi, kolorowymi fotografiami Jennifer. Książka w trakcie lektury posiada też parę czarno-białych fotografii.

Sporym minusem wydania są dość liczne literówki.

 

Fanom piosenkarki polecam choć z racji, iż to książka sprzed dwudziestu lat, można odczuć niedosyt. Dla mnie jest niezła.

This is my seventh book by Tracy Chevalier and I have enjoyed them all. My favourite is still Fallen Angels, about the Suffragette movement, but I enjoyed learning about the Winchester Broderers and the tradition of bell ringing.
I must admit, I did skim some of the detailed descriptions of the embroidery in the cathedral kneelers and cushions, but it was fascinating to learn about the intensive work that went into producing them, back in the 1930s.

 

Violet Speedwell is unmarried, earning her the unenviable title of a 'surplus woman'. She is one of many ladies who lost husbands, lovers and fiances on the battle fields of WW1. The chances of finding a partner now are slim and she spends her days working at a mundane job for an insurance company. She requests a transfer from her home town to Winchester as living with her miserable mother is becoming impossible. Now, however, she must take digs and struggle to make ends meet. It's not a particularly joyful situation but she makes the best of it, until a chance encounter results in her meeting up with the Broderers and she makes new friends and even a potential love interest.

 

This is a slow burning book, but kept my interest to the end. My book group gave it between 3.5 and 4.5 stars and generally enjoyed it. Googling some of the patterns and designs on the cushions was fascinating and was a highlight of our discussion. Images of the cathedral and the shattered stained glass window that was subsequently put back together higglidy piggildy, were also interesting.

 

The narrative highlighted the position of these 'surplus women' and covered the issues of love, loss. and the general position of single women of the era.
The narration in the audiobook, by Fenella Woolgar, was excellent and I forgot I was being read to, always a good sign.
