Format: Paperback

Condition: Very Good — £1.62
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

"Tu étais libre et sauvage. D'une beauté à couper le souffle. Tu n'étais plus une enfant, pas encore une adulte quand tu enflammas la pellicule du Dernier Tango à Paris, un huis clos de sexe et de violence avec Marlon Brando. Tu étais ma cousine. J'étais une petite fille et tu étais célèbre. Tu avais eu plusieurs vies déjà et de premières fêlures. Tu avais quitté ta mère à quinze ans pour venir vivre chez mes parents. Ce Tango marquait le début d'une grande carrière, voulais-tu croire. Il fut le linceul de tes rêves. Tu n'étais préparée à rien, ni à la gloire, ni au scandale. Tu as continué à tourner, mais la douleur s'est installée. Cette histoire, nous nous étions dit que nous l'écririons ensemble. Tu es partie et je m'y suis attelée seule, avec mes souvenirs, mes songes et les traces que tu as laissées derrière toi. Ce livre parle beaucoup de toi et un peu de moi. De cinéma, de politique, des années soixante-dix, de notre famille de fous, de drogue et de suicide, de fêtes et de rires éclatants aussi. Il nous embarque à Londres, à Paris, en Californie, à New York et au Brésil. On y croise les nôtres et ceux qui ont compté, Alain Delon, Brigitte Bardot, Patti Smith, Marlon Brando, Nan Goldin ... Ce livre est pour toi, Maria. Je ne sais pas si c'est le récit que tu aurais souhaité, mais c'est le roman que j'ai voulu écrire." [Payot]
