Críticas:

"Madsen's bio breathes intimacy on every page and avoids a gossipy tone." -Publishers Weekly "Madsen's exhaustive research reveals the public and private details of Stanwyck's life in surprising detail." -Booklist "Madsen's admirably researched, insightful portrait of [Stanwyck's] aloof nature . . . reveals that she was always torn between her wish to give of herself and her need to be in control." -The Christian Science Monitor

Reseña del editor:

A compelling portrait of one of Hollywood's most invincible women, the late Barbara Stanwyck. A most unusual movie star, Stanwyck was an actress of considerable and neglected talent who elevated every role she had, a woman whose personal life matched the rocky road of her career. Whispered to be among Hollywood's scandalous "sewing circle," a group of internationally famous actresses who hid their potentially career-ending lesbianism and bisexuality, Stanwyck kept her liaisons a secret. Despite her steely resolve and her image as a take-control kind of woman, Stanwyck suffered from turbulent marriages and relationships, including her sensational marriage to, and divorce from, the abusive Robert Taylor. Madsen provides a fresh look at this fascinating, complex screen goddess, offering provocative and shocking details from one of Hollywood's most interesting lives.
