A must read for right now. This brave man has a story. It may also help some readers to understand more about Arabic speaking and writing styles (they use a lot of imperatives and rhetoric that may sound puzzling if you're not use to it) to tell the story. Please read!

Good performance of a great book. Also fun to compare with the screenplay, if you're familiar with the brilliant 1936 movie that was based on both the novel and the play. It proves that all three can be both excellent and different from each other.

The actor reads well in the narrative passages but the dialogue voices are annoying: He plays his Babbitt to sound like the Cookie Monster, for some reason. The women all sound silly. The book is good and is an invaluable look into early 1920s middle America, but I didn't like it nearly as much as Dodsworth.

This book must be read by anyone interested in Diana. Or interested in how to write a popular biography. Or interested in writing well. The only criticism I have is that she doesn't include an epilogue on the Martin Bashir scandal. It doesn't exonerate Diana, but it certainly explains some of her behavior at the time. There is no pandering to the sentimental view of the Princess. She was a real person and Lady C presents her as one. This is indeed a fair, informed account of the real Diana and her story.

Too much full repetition of narrative from the public domain we've already heard many many times. Feels like they're there to take up space. But Camilla's story is interesting.

Well researched and argued. I know the author has met with severe sanctioning. It's worth thinking about why this is and Shrier's book will assist with explanation. Read it. Listen to it. It's only a well crafted, well researched, thoughtful and reasonable discussion on a critical issue.. Have enough faith in your own reasoning to give it a chance.

Narrator's voice is a bit annoying but it's okay.
