Daughter of Narcissus by Lady Colin Campbell is a stunning analysis and revelatory memoir of her own dysfunctional family positioned at the heart of upper class Jamaican society from the middle of the 20th century to the present day. Addressing the extreme narcissistic personality disorder of her mother, Georgie Campbell s latest book is both a personal, individual record and a penetrating study of this psychological disorder and how it affects and scars all members of the immediate family. Departing from her former studies of contemporary high society, Georgie Campbell has turned her intelligence and insight onto her own past, exposing the emotional truth beneath her family faÃ§ade of class and privilege. The book interweaves private memories of her mother s destructive behaviour with a detailed analysis of the underlying realities and fantasies of the narcissistic personality. With disarming clarity and hard learnt wisdom, she shows us what motivates the behaviour sof the narcissistic female as she plots and schemes, destructively setting father against children, sibling against sibling and grand-parent against grand-child. The depth of her work can be seen in her inclusion of recent scientific/medial research on the subject, the extensive bibliography and her endorsement by the eminent Dr Anna Brocklebank, who has practised psychiatry and is the legal and medical adviser to the renowned Institute of Clinical Hypnosis. In addition the author interconnects the sociological, political and personal in startling ways. As she covers the end of the British Colonial Age and the rise of a new liberated generation in the 1960s and 1970s, she reveals how these cultural movements impinge on the dynamics and desires within the family Set against a backdrop of wealth and privilege, concealing the destructive and shocking behaviour of the disordered personality, Daughter of Narcissus is disarmingly honest, informed and sometimes disturbing. This compulsive book is not only a fascinating history of one socially prominent international family, but also a uniquely detailed study of narcissism, its manifestations and effects and how to survive them in order to lead a purposeful and affirming life.

The indispensable companion of every well-bred lady at the close of the nineteenth century. In chapters on each part of the female form copious details guide the reader through such imperfections as wrinkles, sunburn, warts and even baldness for which a concoction of rum and onion is prescribed without ever venturing upon too much scientific explanation. Such simple and politely euphemistic terminology as small black spots and redness, combined with the occasional piece of hearsay or high society gossip, gives the impression of a casual yet authoritative chat among nineteenth century aristocratic gentlewomen. Ever fearful of old age or indeed the illusion thereof, The Lady s Dressing Room strikes a graceful balance between hopeless self-indulgence - chocolate is offered as a cure for bad breath - and an heroic call for spartan frugality - where there is even the slightest tendency to grow stout. As well as being highly informative on its intended subject, this book also divulges a great deal about the writer s contemporary society. Numerous pages of advertisements for everything from a carpet sweeper the greatest labour saving invention of the century Invention hath no nobler aim than to lighten woman s labour and the permanent removal of superfluous vein-marks, moles or warts through the administering of electricity by a lady electrician demonstrate a burgeoning consumerism (not to mention Victorian eccentricity). Nothing was more important to a lady than to be seen to be a lady. This is the book that showed them how.

Updated with new theories on Diana's death and exposing the author's royal sources for the first time, this definitive biography relates the story of Princess Diana's life as she would have told it. Compiled from more than 30 meetings and conversations between the author and the princess, whom she first met when Diana was just 17 years old, this exposé reveals the ""real"" Diana as someone simply trying to make sense of a life made up of impossible extremes. Privileged yet anguished, beloved yet self-loathing, Diana is portrayed as a woman with both a sense of great joy and a great burden of pain who did her best to balance her private life and her public persona. From before her marriage up until her tragic death, this account paints a revealing portrait of a woman whose image continues to resonate today.
