Katharine Hepburn is such an iconic figure and I admire her greatly. I was looking forward to reading her biography but found myself disappointed. She was known for being a very private person and this biography makes this very explicit. I enjoyed reading about her family history and how she grew up with all her siblings and the fun adventures they had together. Her parents were extremely progressive for the time and were involved in politics and the Women’s Rights Movement. But as Hepburn continued with her story it became a list of chronological events of her theatre and movie credits. Her sentences are scattered all over the map, trains of thought move from one area to another. The reader is left with no purpose, no direction, and in the end, with fragments of what otherwise was a very interesting life. I just wish we got more of a taste of it.
