Book description
Though Nancy Dell'Olio is no stranger to the front pages, her
real story has never been told. Now, for the first time she talks
about herself, her life and the passions which have inspired her. It's
a story which millions think they know already, from the acres of
purely speculative newsprint which this fascinating woman has
generated. Prepare to be surprised! The real story is far more
gripping than the fictional one.
Born and brought up in New York City, Nancy is a true woman of the
world. She has the temperament and style of an Italian, yet she lives
in London and has adopted an English lifestyle. She is also a proud
European, a Catholic, a Jew and a true internationalist. She is also a
successful lawyer with a keen interest in politics and world affairs -
a woman for all seasons.
Nancy has always emerged serene from scandal that would break most
people. She values her sense of humour as her saving grace. Remember
that scarlet cat suit entrance to Downing Street and all those classic
red carpet moments? Nancy is just as at home in combat jacket and
fatigues on the streets of Ramallah as lunching at Claridges. Fashion
is fun and life is too serious to be taken seriously.
Nancy's book tells the whole story of her life so far. From her
childhood in New York and Puglia in Italy and the accident which
nearly killed her, to the successful career in in commercial law and
the passions which drive her on, despite all too public crises which
would be the end of most of us. This is an inspirational and
entertaining glimpse into the life of a fascinating and enigmatic woman.
Born and brought up in the USA, though somehow also European to the
core, Nancy Dell'Olio is a woman whose style and influences are truly
international. Her book is a fascinating tale full of passion and an
incredible love for life which enabled her to overcome a terrible
accident and has driven her ever since. She became a successful lawyer,
though she could have been a ballet dancer. Now, with all the scandal
and heartache of recent years behind her, Nancy is free to tell her
story.
