Description
Clio Campbell's life was marked by glamour and chaos. Her story is one of love, politics, and activism, spanning decades and continents. When she takes her own life, her friend Ruth is left to pick up the pieces and confront the many unanswered questions about Clio's life. As news of Clio's death spreads, those who knew her begin to share their memories and stories. A picture of a complex and multifaceted woman emerges, full of contradictions and surprises. Through these accounts, we are forced to re-examine our understanding of Clio Campbell and the world she inhabited. This book is a powerful exploration of one woman's life, and the ways in which our perceptions of her can be both shaped and distorted by those around us.
