Me and My Shadows: Life with Judy Garland by Lorna Luft
The extraordinary memoir of Lorna Luft - a remarkable woman and singularly talented performer - her half-sister Liza Minnelli and baby brother Joe, as they desperately try to hang on to their legendary mother. With often-hilarious wit, and candid detail, this is an account of survival in a world of dizzying contradictions. By learning to embrace her past, Lorna Luft has managed to emerge out of the shadows. It's a story told on a grand scale - yet it's one most of us can understand.
'A touching, affectionate and credible memoir that pulls no punches, yet restores Judy Garland to the human race' Sunday Times
'Luft has that rarest of qualities . . . perspective . . . and it wasn't easy, to judge by this engrossing account' Mail on Sunday
