This is the book of the Sixties that we have been waiting for."—Norman Mailer Through a kaleidoscope of seemingly fragmented voices, patterns form, giving brilliant definition to the very American tragedy of Edie Sedgwick, a woman…not likely to be forgotten after this haunting portrait."— Publishers Weekly Extraordinary . . . a fascinating narrative that is both meticulously reported and expertly orchestrated."— The New York Times An exceptionally seductive biography. . . . You can't put it down. . . . It has novelistic excitement."— Los Angeles Times Book Review What makes this book so unusual, unique almost, is the picture it paints of the New York counterculture.

Edie gave an almost mythic quality to its subject's persona and her brief rise and fall, yet in its telling you could also follow clear lines connecting disparate pieces of 20th-century American life: the hollow cult of celebrity; the fragile prospect of greater opportunity for women; the intoxicating dream of the West for certain Easterners; the peculiar pathologies of the very rich." --Maria Russo, New York Times Book Review "Through a kaleidoscope of seemingly fragmented voices, patterns form, giving brilliant definition to the very American tragedy of Edie Sedgwick, a woman . . . not likely to be forgotten after this haunting portrait." -- Publishers Weekly "What makes this book so unusual, unique almost, is the picture it paints of the New York counterculture.

Synopsis
When Edie was first published, it quickly became an international best-seller and then took its place among the classic books about the 1960s. Edie Sedgwick exploded into the public eye like a comet. She seemed to have it all: she was aristocratic and glamorous, vivacious and young, Andy Warhol's superstar. But within a few years she flared out as quickly as she had appeared, and before she turned twenty-nine she was dead from a drug overdose. In a dazzling tapestry of voices—family, friends, lovers, rivals—the entire meteoric trajectory of Edie Sedgwick's life is brilliantly captured. And so is the Pop Art world of the ‘60s: the sex, drugs, fashion, music—the mad rush for pleasure and fame. All glitter and flash on the outside, it was hollow and desperate within—like Edie herself, and like her mentor, Andy Warhol. Alternately mesmerizing, tragic, and horrifying, this book shattered many myths about the ‘60s experience in America., When Edie was first published, it quickly became an international bestseller and then took its place among the classic books about the 1960s.
