Andrew Morton Livres

Lorsque cette biographie de Diana par Andrew Morton parut en 1992, le public n'avait pas compris à quel point la princesse de Galles était impliquée dans cet ouvrage. Elle y révélait les détails de son du mariage, ses tentatives de suicide, l'existence de Camilla. Privée de ses privilèges, réduite à l'impuissance par la cour d'Angleterre, il lui était impossible à l'époque de reconnaître qu'elle s'était prêtée à des entretiens enregistrés qui s'étaient secrètement déroulés au palais de Kensington. Aujourd'hui, vingt ans après sa disparition lors de la tragique nuit du 31 aout 1997, cette nouvelle édition permet aux lecteurs de retrouver les paroles exactes prononcées par Diana. Ce document unique, testament de l'une des personnalités les plus charismatiques de notre époque, forme l'autobiographie de celle que tous appelaient la « princesse du peuple ».

The 1992 publication of Andrew Morton's bestseller shook the British royal family. It revealed that Prince Charles had a long-term affair, that his marriage to Diana was a sham, and that she struggled with an eating disorder and suicidal thoughts. Initially met with disbelief, the book's claims gained credibility when the couple announced their separation in December 1992, followed by Charles's televised admission of infidelity. Diana's friends hoped this separation would allow her to find happiness, but her situation became increasingly isolating, with her children only occasionally by her side. The narrative explores the secret battles behind closed doors and Diana's frustration as she seeks to break free from her constrained royal existence. With unprecedented access to Diana's closest friends and advisers, Morton reveals how she is learning to assert her identity beyond being a royal figure. He delves into the infighting and intrigue surrounding this royal crisis, as well as Diana's private thoughts on her public retirement, potential remarriage, and her role in preparing Prince William for his future. Illustrated with 32 pages of striking color photographs, this account offers an explosive look at the struggles of one of the most iconic figures in modern history.

Kniha Diana, její skutečný příběh po svém prvním vydání v roce 1992 navždy změnila způsob, jakým veřejnost pohlížela na britskou monarchii. Na prvním místě žebříčku bestsellerů deníku New York Times se stala unikátní literární klasikou nejen pro svůj výbušný obsah, ale i proto, že se Diana na publikaci osobně podílela. Nikdy předtím žádný významný člen královské rodiny nehovořil tak otevřeným způsobem o svém nešťastném manželství, o svém vztahu s královnou, o neobyčejném životě uprostřed rodu Windsorů, o svých nadějích, obavách a snech. Nyní autor biografií Andrew Morton znovu prošel tajné nahrávky, které se zesnulou princeznou pořídil, aby přinesl nové překvapující poznatky a napomohl hlubšímu pochopení jejího života i myšlení. V tomto plně přepracovaném vydání své průlomové biografie se Morton zabývá Dianiným odkazem a jejím významem pro moderní královskou rodinu. Ikona v životě a legenda po smrti – Diana nepřestává fascinovat.

Pokračování knihy Diana: Její pravdivý příběh. S pomocí několika nejbližších přátel a rádců z Walesu mohl Andrew Morton, autor knihy Diana: Její pravdivý příběh, opět nahlednout za drapérie oficiální královské propagandy a vylíčit, jak se Diana, jež se stala princeznou dříve, než dosáhla dospělosti, nyní učí být paní vlastího osudu, a nikoli jen palácovou loutkou. Morton odhaluje spory a intriky, které stály v pozadí rozluky s Charlesem, a tlumočí Dianiny osobní názory na odchod z veřejného života, na možnost nového manželství, na muže, které v životě potkala, i na výchovu prince Williama pro jeho budoucí královskou úlohu.
