Amazon.co.uk book description:
"Audrey Hepburn, slim, dark, almost waif-like, was a star in an age that favoured well-upholstered blondes; her vitality, innocence and beguiling eyes overrode contemporary conventions of beauty and transported her to the top of Hollywood's tree. In tracking down a number of her closest friends and relations, including international financier Lord Hanson, and talking for the first time to her two husbands, Paris has written the most complete biography of Hepburn to date."
An excellent biography. At times it goes into too much detail, but it's a very kind biography, it's definitely not a hatchet job as some biographies are. It follows her childhood, her life living in the Netherlands during WW2, her rise to stardom, her film career, her work for UNICEF and then her sad death in 1993.
Definitely a good read for an Audrey Hepburn fan, such as myself.
Updated 17 January: On its way to FiBe after discovering she was a fellow Audrey Hepburn fan!

Thanks gothmarcus xx
I enjoyed learning more about Audrey Hepburn and I agree definitely a read for fans of Miss Hepburn. It is very thorough although I wish that she had written an autobiography so we could have had a more personal account of her life.
I will find an appropriate way to release this.
Thanks again Gothmarcus.
