More about the book

"Dick Lilli – good child" was the response when three-year-old Lilli Palmer, determined to conquer the world as an actress, was asked her name. In her autobiographical novel, Lilli Palmer recounts her life journey with charm, insight, humor, and disarming honesty, traveling from Berlin to Paris, London to Hollywood, and finally back to New York and Germany. Her journey resembles a rollercoaster ride, initially taken alone, then with her first husband Rex Harrison, and later alongside her second husband Carlos Thompson. It is her resilience that allowed Lilli Palmer to rise again and again whenever her life threatened to derail.
