La duquesa de Windsor

A close friend of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Diana Mitford -Lady Mosley, after her second marriage- was a regular guest at their parties in Paris or at the "Moulin" de Orsay, the French town where they were neighbors. With her inimitable style -maliciously intelligent, witty and insightful- hers, she paints an unforgettable portrait of her friend, which realistically captures the Duchess's personality, her charm, and her shadows as well. What was it that so deeply captivated King Edward VIII to the point of making him renounce the throne in order never to separate from Wallis Simpson? This is the question Diana Mitford addresses, and perhaps she can answer it better than anyone given her own devotion to Sir Oswald Mosley, leader of the British Fascists, for whom she left the first of her, an immensely wealthy, husband. her.
