COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Selfish Life of One of the Rich and Famous submitted by ekjensen on July 19, 2017, 3:05pm Thought this book would be interesting especially after visiting Peggy Guggenheim location in Venice. This oversexed woman is a very sad individual and the book is skippable in terms of notable biographies.
