Sex Drugs & Rock & Roll - A True Story of Beautiful Flawed family in London
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
One of the most watched couples in London during the 1960's was Tommy Weber and Susan Coriat. They had beauty and youth and power and knew everyone that mattered. A Day in the Life is the fascinating story of what happens when there is too much drugs, sex, and rock and roll.
A Day in the Life
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Wonderfully written account of a family that gets caught in the crossfire of the 60's counterculture revolution, which included all the sex, drugs and rock n roll possible. Enjoyed learning about the personal histories that led up to this trainwreck of a family. Even more intriquing is that we know the offspring as actors in the public eye. A real page-turner.
A Modern Fairy Tale
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
What an amazing story! A Fairy Tale but one that doesn't end with "they lived happily ever after". Greenfield reveals a part of the swinging 60's that ads to the saying "sex drugs and rock'n roll", heartbreak and despair. I was totally engrossed in this story and could not put it down. WHen is the movie coming out?
Absolute Page Turner!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Greenfield manages to create, what would in the hands of a lesser writer be a mundane biography, a truly compelling tale of star-crossed lovers and a genuine work of art. A must read for anyone interested in biographies about truly unique (and somewhat unknown to the general status quo) figures, or simply anyone who thinks their family is dysfunctional:)
