A Genius in the Family by Piers Du Pre
Since her death in 1987, Jacqueline du Pre's brother and sister have long felt that her life story has never been properly told. This is an extraordinary revealing, often painful, always moving account of what happens when a prodigy is born into a family and how the driving force of an undeniable talent controlled not only her life but theirs. Proud as they were of her success, none of them were prepared for the impact of her genius on their lives and hers. Now, a major motion picture released in the UK in January 1999, "Hilary and Jackie", stars Emily Watson as Jacqueline du Pre.| SKU | Unavailable |
