Description

It is New Years Eve, 1969. The narrator, an internationally renowned writer in his forties and a self-proclaimed Don Juan, meets the beautiful American movie actress Diana Soren at a party and is fascinated by her elusive charm. But infatuation becomes doomed pursuit as Diana spurns him and flees into an intrigue of paranoia and sexual jealousy. An extraordinary exploration of love, lust, betrayal, and humiliation, Diana is also a powerfully affecting novel about a vital moment in the chronicle of our times, a crucial intersection of history and art; salvation was no longer to be found in literature, and love was thwarted by the very forces that nourished it. - from Amzon
