Description

What Remains is a vivid and haunting memoir about a girl from a working-class the town who becomes an award-winning tv producer and marries a prince, Anthony Radziwill. Carole grew up in a small suburb with a big, eccentric cast of characters. At nineteen, she struck out for New York City to discover a different life. Her career at ABC News led her to the refugee camps of Cambodia, to a bunker in Tel Aviv, and to the scene of the Menendez murders. Her marriage led her into the old world of European nobility and the more recent world of American aristocracy.

What Remains begins with loss and returns to loss. A small plane plunges into the sea carrying John F. Kennedy Jr., Anthony’s cousin, and Carolyn Bessette Kennedy, Carole’s closest friend. Three weeks later Anthony dies of cancer. With unflinching honesty and a journalist’s keen eye, Carole Radziwill explores the iconic ties of circle of relatives, the complexities of marriage, the significance of friendship, and the challenges of self-invention. Beautifully written, What Remains “gets on the essence of what matters,” wrote Oprah Winfrey. “Friendship, compassion, destiny.”
