sigmamorrigan's review against another edition
4.0
Sarah Bernhardt clearly took great pains during her career to create a larger-than-life persona to be her legacy. This book certainly gives a sense of the histrionics, the personal drama, and the (sometimes misplaced) determination that have kept this 19th/20th century actress' name on the lips of those in and out of the theatre community. While the book was not a particularly objectively written biography, I still enjoyed it as a work that did demonstrate to me the oversized life Sarah lived.
