Product Information
Picasso's Ghost tells the amazing true story of author, actress and model Carole Mallory, who fell in love with Picasso's son Claude as he whirled her around a Manhattan dance floor, her heart lost in the rhythm of Gloria Gayr's I Will Survive. This up-and-down relationship coincided with her career as a supermodel gracing the covers of Cosmopolitan, New York Magazine, and her work in such iconic films as The Stepford Wives and Looking for Mr. Goodbar. Her adventures in Hollywood, New York and Paris with such stellar lovers as Peter Sellers, Robert de Niro, Rod Stewart, Richard Gere and Norman Mailer make for an exciting and erotic read that will make the reader cheer for Mallory's eventual happy ending. The blow Carole suffered, the lobotomization of her once bright and charming father, could t have been more severe. It takes more than courage to survive a horror on that scale. I suggest that she was gifted as well, as an actress and as a keen observer, too, as a potential journalist and social commentator, Kurt VonnegutProduct Identifiers
