En savoir plus sur le livre
A moving and wickedly funny memoir about one woman's life as the daughter of a Warhol superstar, exploring the intimate bonds of mother-daughter relationships. Alex Auder's life began at the Chelsea Hotel, New York City's infamous bohemian hangout, where her mother, Viva, a longtime resident and one of Andy Warhol's superstars, went into labor in the lobby. These early moments, captured by her filmmaker father, Michel Auder, foreshadowed a whirlwind childhood. At the center of it all is Viva, a glamorous and unpredictable figure who takes Alex on a journey from gig to gig, splitting time between Connecticut and 1980s Tribeca, returning to the Chelsea Hotel, and spending summers with her conservative family. Auder reflects on the seedy glory of her upbringing, from walking a pet goat around Chelsea to co-parenting her younger sister, Gaby, and partying in East Village nightclubs. Flitting between this vibrant past and her present life as a yoga instructor, actor, mother, wife, and social media provocateur, Auder crafts a stunning, moving, and hilarious portrait of family and the journey of becoming one's own person.
