The bridesmaid's daughter : from Grace Kelly's wedding to a homeless shelter - searching for my mother

The dual story of Carolyn and her child; one strand evoking a beautiful woman's success and film star friendship with Grace Kelly in '50s new York - the other a child's-eye account of a mother's descent into psychosis and a childhood of deprivation and captivity.
