#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • For the first time, rock music’s most famous muse tells her incredible story
“A charming, lively and seductive book . . . The appeal of Wonderful Tonight is as self-evident as the seemingly simple but brash opening chord of ‘A Hard Day’s Night.’”—The New York Times Book Review
Pattie Boyd, former wife of both George Harrison and Eric Clapton, finally breaks a forty-year silence and tells the story of how she found herself bound to two of the most addictive, promiscuous musical geniuses of the twentieth century and became the most legendary muse in the history of rock and roll. The woman who inspired Harrison’s song “Something” and Clapton’s anthem “Layla,” Pattie Boyd has written a book that is rich and raw, funny and heartbreaking—and totally honest.
Customer Reviews
Interesting !
I enjoyed the content
And also the writing style. It held my interest. Give us a good back drop on George Harrison and Eric Clapton both of whom were her husband. Clearly Pattie was an adventuresome person
A Delightful Read
Hard to put down. This wonderful book transported me to a time and place that I would have loved to be a part of and Pattie made that possible. She also answered a lot of questions. She made two amazing men, who otherwise seemed to be larger than life or storybook characters, come to life and be human just like us. She also allowed us to see into her heart and struggles and realize that she was human too. Bravo Pattie, I wish I could know you. I think we'd make fast friends. You're an inspiration.
Wonderful not so
Two problems. First the ghost writer helping write did a poor job. Very boring for the most part. Second,as a woman living such an extravagant life why is it she did nothing to help others? Taking photos is a great profession but come on, you're in India with abject poverty and you do nothing?? Ok,maybe you do a little dope and then forget about the lepers...I guess she's a bit old to say "grow up" but hey,GROW UP!!
