When Time asked gossip columnist Liz Smith to name the greatest love affair of all time, without hesitation, she named Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor, saying it was “the most vivid example of a public love affair” she could think of. However, it was a relationship most people viewed through the kaleidoscope of gossip columns and paparazzi photos. In this slim book, an ode to his then-wife, Burton offers a much more intimate picture of their relationship, including a detailed account of their pre-Cleopatra encounters, which delivered no hint of the frisson that would later occur.
“You may be as vicious about me as you please. You will only do me justice.”
--Richard Burton
