The Mansions of Limbo

One of the modern era's most incisive oracles, Dominick Dunne, gives us yet another great collection of his renowned essays from Vanity Fair magazine. From the man who gets the interviews of the rich and famous and the rich and infamous, that other writers only dream of, come fifteen electrifying essays in, The Mansions of Limbo. From Queen Noor of Jordan only one month after the Gulf War, to the always controversial artist and photographer Robert Mapplethorpe just prior to his death from AIDS, to the former wife, Jane Wyman, of the former President Ronald Reagan, and many more, Dunne gets "the" tell-all interviews of a lifetime --- and thrills us with his unparalleled mastery of the written word as a magnificent bonus. This was Dunne's sixth book, after such blockbuster bestsellers as: The Two Mrs. Grenvilles; Fatal Charms; People Like Us; An Inconvenient Woman; and, The Winners.
