Critics Review

Praise for Stephen Greco:

“A richly atmospheric meditation on art and love as well as a detailed window into the world of filmmaking, The Woman Who Had Everything shows that Elizabeth Taylor’s most valuable possession—and her most generous gift—was her own heart.”—Kim van Alkemade, New York Times bestselling author

“Explores with aplomb the luxurious jet-set life of its subjects, and their abiding friendship in the 1960s and 1970s… With cameos from Leonard Bernstein, Rudolf Nureyev and Andy Warhol, it’s a crash course in the pop culture of the time. A rollicking ride that’s equal parts gossip, tenderness and emotional truth.” The Toronto Star on Such Good Friends

“Glimpses into the lives of two complex women whose unshakeable bond enables them to navigate the upper echelons of high society. It is well-researched with flawless details and makes for an interesting read.” —Historical Novel Society on The Last American Heiresses

“Fascinating and effervescent… Such Good Friends captures a platonic yet deeply passionate friendship that had all the faultlines of a doomed romance, and the seismic influence of Capote and Radziwill on their respective worlds, and each other.” —Natalie Jenner, author of the international bestseller The Jane Austen Society and Bloomsbury Girls on Such Good Friends

“A thoughtful examination of the precarious bonds of friendship, fame and fortune. Sweepingly detailed, with glamour and mystery woven throughout. Fans of Capote and the era of Camelot should be delighted.” —Shana Abe, bestselling author of The Second Mrs. Astor on Such Good Friends

“Seamlessly blends high society glamour with human frailties in this vivid recreation of celebrated writer Truman Capote’s and New York socialite Lee Radziwell’s complicated friendship that spanned from the 1950s into the 1970s. —Mary Ellen Taylor, Amazon bestselling author on Such Good Friends
