O knihe
Drawing on a kaleidoscopic array of sources and perspectives never before used in books about Diana or the royal family-from interviews with professional lookalikes to the diaries of ordinary people and the peculiar work of outsider artists-Edward White guides us through Dianaworld, the strange precinct of a global cultural obsession. It's a place of mass delusions, outsized fantasies, and quixotic dreams; of druids, psychics, Hollywood stars, sex workers, obsessive stalkers, radical feminists, and Middle Eastern generals. White encounters startling, contradictory visions of Diana: a harbinger of Brexit populism and a catalyst for #MeToo; an all-American consumer capitalist and champion of non-Western tradition; the savior of the British aristocracy but also-in the words of one superfan-"the biggest punk that's come out of England." This is Diana, Princess of the True Inner Self, the ultimate heroine for our times: in Dianaworld you'll find a version of Diana that was Jewish, or working-class, or republican-or anything else that she wasn't but you are.
