Pełny opis Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis, The Untold Story by Barbara Leaming, 9781250017642.
The untold story of how one woman's life was changed forever in amatter of seconds by a horrific trauma. For almost six decades,
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis has fascinated people worldwide. The subject
of numerous books and thousands of articles, her life has probably been
documented in millions of words. And yet, there has always remained
something mysterious, something private about this very public woman.
With extraordinary skill and great sensitivity, Barbara Leaming explores
the seemingly magical world of Jackie's youth, her fairy-tale marriage
to a wealthy and handsome Senator and Presidential candidate and her
astonishing transformation into a deft political wife and unique First
Lady. This spirited young woman's rejection of the idea of a "safe
marriage" as the wife of some socially prominent but utterly predictable
man led her to JFK and international fame. But the trauma of her
husband's murder, which left her literally soaked in blood and brains,
would damage her far more than has been known. Until now. This is the
first book to document Jackie's brutal, lonely and valiant
thirty-one-year struggle with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In
heartrending detail, we witness a struggle that unfolded at times before
our own eyes, but which we failed to understand. While the life of
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis has been examined and scrutinized countless
times, it is only now that we can truly discover the woman behind the
facade, the untold story of this iconic woman.
