Why read it?
1 author picked Jackie and Maria as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The most up-to-date of my choices, this fabulous book is about Jackie Kennedy and Maria Callas, who both had relationships with Ari Onassis. I had obviously heard of both women in their very different contexts as wife of the president and famous opera singer but didn’t know how intimately they were connected. I love the way Gill Paul’s sparky, pacey novel brings both women to life in all their flawed, fascinating glory.
From Joanna's list on historical real-life female protagonists.
