How did this diary begin? My son said, "Mother, you should write things down for us to remember." This diary includes the challenging times, the funny times, the little miracles, and a lot of Hail Marys.
Using a wealth of archival material, including government documents, Liz Millward investigates the very idea of airspace. She maps the contours of five forms of civilian airspace - the private, the commercial, the imperial, the national, and the body of the pilot herself - as concrete places through which social differences such as gender, class, race, and sexuality were reproduced and challenged.
In 1993 Liz Tilberis had it all. Having risen to the editorship of British Vogue, she had been hired as editor-in-chief of Harper's Bazaar, the Bible of US fashion. Moving to America with her husband and two small children she presided over the dazzling relaunch of the magazine, instantly becoming one of the most prominent figures in international media and fashion circles. Then, all at once, the rug was pulled out from under her feet. On the eve of her Christmas party, where the guests included the great and the good from Donna Karan, Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein, to Randolph Hearst and Barbara Walters, Tilberis was diagnosed with third-stage ovarian cancer. This is her extraordinary account of her career in high fashion and her remarkable battle with cancer, told with immense charm, honesty and wit.
