What I did not anticipate was how my journey would also resonate with men.â€

See more Fonda DVDsBosworth goes behind the image of an American superwoman, revealing Fondaâ€"more powerful and vulnerable than ever expectedâ€"whose struggles for high achievement, love, and successful motherhood mirror the conflicts of a generation of women. As actress, activist, businesswoman, wife, and mother, Jane Fonda has pushed herself to the limit, attempting to please all, excel in every arena, be everything. We’ve read her version of her controversial life, yet nothing can prepare us for this genuinely revelatory account of Jane’s engrossing, sometimes shocking journey. Supplemented by the psychiatric records of her suicidal, bipolar mother, Fonda’s FBI file, and interviews with her intimates, this perceptive! portrait strips away hype and the subject’s own mythmaking. Patricia Bosworth shows us what a toll Jane’s quest to excel (and please her demanding father, Henry) exacted and sheds light on truths she’s glossed over: her rejection of her mother before her suicide; the death threats and self-doubts of her antiwar crusade; her second husband Tom Hayden’s habit of putting her down while spending her fortune; the emotional downfall that led her to stop acting and marry Ted Turner. Lee Strasberg once said that Jane had "panic in her eyes," and it is this wounded but so familiar womanâ€"human yet still heroic, the embodiment of a generation’s conflicts and triumphsâ€"whom Bosworth captures so utterly and definitively.A complete guide to healthy cooking features 120 delicious recipes, along with menu suggestions, nutritional analyses, cooking and preparation tips, and advice on fitness, exercise, and more. 200,000 first printing. $350,000 ad/promo.
