Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Santopietro should be lauded for his approach to this much-written-about subject. Using engaging prose, he casts a critical eye on each piece of the Streisand oeuvre, while always setting the critical examinations within the historical contexts of both society and the entertainment industry. It's refreshing to be able to read about the woman's work without being subjected to hear-say or apocryphal comments that only the lady herself could validate. This critical analysis is the missing link (a long time missing) between Stresiand's interviews about her work, her co-workers' opinions and the press. Hats off to you, Tom. This is a terrific book that I keep thinking about even after having read it some weeks ago. Thank you for setting the record straight on the fine line between celebrities' public lives and their professional personas.
