Reviews"Jane Green has outdone herself with this mesmerizing and delicious story of a young girl trying to find her way--and losing control--in the Swinging Sixties in London.

A wild ride."--Taylor Jenkins Reid "Sister Stardust is wonderful and big-hearted, expansive and page-turning. A joy to read."--Laura Dave, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Last Thing He Told Me "Sister Stardust is smart, sexy, and compulsively page-turning. Love, love, love."--Lauren Weisberger, #1 New York Times bestselling author "A magic novel and a sumptuous feast for the senses. Sister Stardust is a thrilling trip."--Elin Hilderbrand "This novel is a feast for the senses: a coming-of-age story about a shopgirl in the '60s who takes a magic ride to a world most people can only dream of--and finds it even more glamorous, intoxicating, and ultimately heartbreaking than she ever could have imagined. Exuberantly hopeful and thrillingly alive, Sister Stardust is Jane Green's best novel yet!"--Christina Baker Kline, #1 New York Times bestselling author "Sister Stardust unfolds like a wild ride on the Marrakech Express. Based on a true story, the heady and decadent world of 1960's socialite Talitha Getty comes alive in paisley perfection when she meets her soul sister Claire. We are in the hands of the master craftsman Jane Green, who paints the world with a vivid brush, dripping in style and emotion. An unforgettable, spectacular read."--Adriana Trigiani, bestselling author of The Good Left Undone "Green transports you into the fascinating and rarified world of the enigmatic Talitha Getty and makes you long to linger even as the pages fly by.

In her twenties, and already a famous model and actress, she moved from London to a palace in Marrakesh, with her husband Paul Getty, the famous oil heir. There she presided over a swirling ex-pat scene filled with music, art, free love and a counterculture taking root across the world. When Claire arrives in London from her small town, she never expects to cross paths with a woman as magnetic as Talitha Getty. Yearning for the adventure and independence, she's swept off to Marrakesh, where the two become kindred spirits. But beneath Talitha's glamourous facade lurks a darkness few can understand. As their friendship blossoms and the two grow closer, the realities of Talitha's precarious existence set off a chain of dangerous events that could alter Claire's life forever.
