First edition thus. "When Edie was first published, it quickly became an international bestseller and then took its place among the classic books about the 1960s. Edie Sedgwick exploded into the public eye like a comet. She seemed to have it all: she was aristocratic and glamorous, vivacious and young, Andy Warhol's superstar. But within a few years she flared out as quickly as she had appeared, and before she turned twenty-nine she was dead from a drug overdose. In a dazzling tapestry of voices--family, friends, lovers, rivals--the entire meteoric trajectory of Edie Sedgwick's life is brilliantly captured. And so is the Pop Art world of the 60s: the sex, drugs, fashion, music, the mad rush for pleasure and fame. All glitter and flash on the outside, it was hollow and desperate within, like Edie herself, and like her mentor, Andy Warhol. Alternately mesmerizing, tragic, and horrifying, this book shattered many myths about the 60s experience in America." - Publisher. Size: 8vo.

Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. Black & White Photographs (illustrator). Reprint. Pages lightly tanned at edges, otherwise without flaw. 6 X9" 369 pages. Born into the high society of New England, Edie Sedgwick burst upon the burgeoning Pop scene of the mid-sixties and immediately became the "It" girl of that turbulent time. Told in the words of the era's celebrities, its groupies, and Edie's own hometown friends and family, this critically acclaimed best-selling biography is both an examination of a young woman who came to symbolize the sixties and a definitive critique of the decade itself, from Vogue "Youthquaker" to reigning queen of Andy Warhols "Factory". Illustrated with black/white glossy photographs.
First UK paperback edition. Octavo-size paperback. Fine in wrappers. Looks at the short life of Edie Sedgwick, Vogue model, actress, drug addict, and one of the key figures at the heart of the Sixties Pop Art world. Profusely illustrated with b/w photographs.
