...classic confrontation between two women wearing the same outfit-almost. The pint-size mirror image of Bianco Jagger was none other than Tatum O'Neal-wearing a long summer dress with pearls, a wide-brimmed hat and carrying Bianca's trademark, the walking stick. Bianca was about to leave for Italy, and Tatum, 9, was in London with her father Ryan to promote their movie hit Paper Moon. Bianca and Tatum, who have become rival models but the best of friends, turned up in their look-alike getups at the wedding reception for trendy Restaurateur Michael Chow (Mister...
Anyway, we saw more and more of each other, growing closer as we grew more unhappy. One especially grey day I was down in her room unburdening myself as she was stretching her hair and wrapping it up again before the mirror.

The passionate, impromptu politics of the '60s has long since closed down, and may have to await renewal until Jane Fonda's and Tom Hayden...

Ostensibly a hodge-podge of theological quibbles, the book sews its cases in point together with the strong thread of a sophisticated socialist ethics, and a delightful sense of both the fun and sometimes the necessity of playing havoc with the party line...
