She has gone through so much from the times before, durning and after her beautiful career and time she had to endure with her family. It Carrie’s her admires through times of her life that I thought I knew of her life when I actually never honestly knew the dept of. I knew Hepburn endured much throughout her life but never as much as I could have actually truly and honestly could really know the honest meat and potatoes unless I’d gotten this beautiful book put together by the ones that truly knew this queen as much and better than non other than her family and her son. Thank you so much for them for allowing me to deeply and honestly explore as much as I truly loved learning all that I have from her loving friends and especially the true and honest love of her life her children and especially her darling *Luca*. Thank you dearly for opening up and opening my eyes and guiding true admires like myself especially into the life and enjoyment inland all of the things and times of her life that she truly enjoyed and so many of the enjoyments Audrey felt that were so important to her throughout her life especially her charities that she traveled all over the world to fulfill as Ambassador of UNICEF, an advocate for children rights, her mission to Ethiopia, Hepburn was such a beautiful beautiful soul inside and out. The recipes and beautiful stories and pictures of her, friends and her family.. to anyone like myself that truly truly love everything Audrey Hepburn. I first fell in love while watching her for the very first time when I was 13 yrs old and she portrayed Holly in Breakfast at Tiffany’s I still remember it so well. on a late Sunday evening (that really really was my very first time watching her, watching her in a movie, and it was even the very first time I’d ever even heard of an Audrey Hepburn period. I watched her that late evening on TCM (Time Classic Movie) on television and I had to be interrupted by my mommie bc I had to get to bed but I recorded the movie before I went to bed and finished that next evening watching Holly and I loved her and her character in that movie and feel in love with all of her movies minus the musical she performed, I love her so much but I just couldn’t get into the musical which I’m for sure didn’t hurt the lovely lovely beautiful Hepburn.

Herzerwärmend...
Als großer Fan von Audrey Hepburn musste ich dieses Buch haben, obwohl ich nicht einmal richtig wusste, was mich erwarten würde. Doch schon weil ihr jüngerer Sohn Luca das Buch veröffentlicht hat, war es fürmich sehr reizvoll. Der Titel verrät ja bereits, dass es zumindest einiges über der privaten Person Audreys verraten würde. Nun halte ich ein Buch in Händen, was an Persönlichkeit wohl nicht mehr zu überbieten ist. Es ist gespickt von Familienfotos, Dokumenten, Erinnerungen (eines "Jungen" an seine über alles geliebte Mutter) und sehr vielen Rezepten, die Audrey selbst gerne gekocht und gegessen hat. Ich besitze bereits viele Bücher über Audrey, auch das von ihrem älteren Sohn Sean, das ebenfalls mit vieln privaten Fotos aufwarten kann, aber dennoch gibt es in diesem Buch viel Neues zu entdecken. Das Buch ist durchgehen auf Englisch. Die Mengen- und Gradangaben in den Rezepten sind allerdings auch in Gramm, Milliliter und Celsius angegeben. Ich kann das Buch nur jedem ans Herz legen!

写真だけみても 面白い
金閣寺や 舞妓さんとの 写真も あります。 日本語訳も ペーパー版で 出ていますが Kindle で読めるのは 便利です。 縦 一ページにできないので 横 二ページ表示で小さくなってしまうのが 困ります。
