The Private Lives of Pippa Lee - Rebecca Miller - Bog

Rebecca Miller's The Private Lives of Pippa Lee is the study of a brave, curious, multilayered woman-an acutely intelligent portrait of the many lives behind a single name. Now a major motion picture.What part of our selves do we hide away in order to create a stable, successful adult life?Pippa Lee has just such a life in place at age fifty, when her older husband, a retired publisher, decides they should move to a retirement community outside New York City. Pippa is suddenly deprived of the stimulation and distraction that had held everything in place. She begins losing track of her own mind; her foundations start to shudder, and gradually we learn the truth of the young life that led her finally to settle down in marriage-years of neglect and rebellion, wild transgressions and powerful defiance.
