Susan Elliott was the American wife of British actor Denholm Elliott (Raiders of the Lost Ark, Trading Places, A Room with a View, etc.). This is a true story of the life they shared before each dying tragic deaths - his through AIDS, hers through a fire in their home. Though the pages are laced throughout with stories of Denholm, this is primarily a story of Susan Elliott after Denholm. We learn of her struggle to cope with the changes in her life after he died, her dependence on alcohol and her attempts to keep a 'stiff upper lip' throughout extraordinary hardships which would bring the majority of us to our knees.Told in story form and at times with painful candor by Joyce Keating, Susan Elliott’s sister and closest friend, this is also a story of the immense strength of love between two sisters and the heartrending attempt of one to keep the other alive. Thankfully, tragedy in this story is well balanced by humor and wit.
