Book excerpt: "Ruth Francisco plunges into the subtext of Jackie's public life, psychology, and sexuality, beyond her dazzling mythic exterior, re-imagining Jackie's feelings and thoughts between the lines of recorded history. In this tale, we follow Jackie's journey from her privileged yet wrenching youth, through the exaltation and suffering of her marriage to John F. Kennedy, to the shattering despair of her losses, exile, and loneliness. As she learns to forgive her jealous rival, Maria Callas, and her abusive second husband, Aristotle Onassis, Jackie begins to find redemption, ultimately discovering peace through her children and her work."--BOOK JACKET.
