A review by serenedancer
High Society: The Life of Grace Kelly by Donald Spoto

3.0

I read this book as part of my attempt to read a book from every country in the world. I'm partly using a list from another woman who did this and she counted it as a book from Monaco.

Well-written interesting biography about a very interesting woman. However, it is was mostly focused on her life as an actress. Once she became a princess it was extremely vague.

You could also tell that the author knew her personally. It did give him some insight into her, but he never said a negative thing about her. Like she did seem like a good person, more progressive than most people of her time, but there's no way she was absolutely perfect.

I can recommend the audiobook, it is well narrated.
