Past Imperfect: An Enjoyable Glossy Memoir
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This autobiography, first written by the effervescent Collins in 1978 before being updated in 1984, is a great showbiz memoir. The best word to describe this book is breezy...going at lightning speed from London to Hollywood to the jet set hideaways of Europe back to the glittering lights of LA Collins dishes on everything from husbands (3 failed ones), clothes (couture of course), children (3 darling ones) and career (a roller coaster). With a gritty take on her life Collins is refreshingly frank in this book, bridging the gap between kiss and tell all and a manifesto of sorts. Sharply written and fantastically photographed this book is the Collins standard. As always she'll be laughing all the way to the bank.
