Description
Jacqueline du Pré: A Biography
A deeply moving and insightful portrait of a complex person, this biography draws on the author's personal friendship with Jacqueline du Pré. Behind the music world's "golden girl" façade, du Pré was an achingly human individual, marked by isolation as a child and confinement to a rarefied concert world as an adult.
As multiple sclerosis took its toll over the last fifteen years of her life, du Pré lived in a shrinking world of illness. This extraordinary story is told with feeling by Carol Easton, who knew du Pré personally.
