Little Me

Dive into the uproarious, 'bountifully illustrated' life story of Belle Poitrine, née Mayble Schlumpfert, the fictional diva whose 'autobiography' is a masterclass in hilarious mishaps and audacious self-promotion. From the acclaimed author of "Auntie Mame," "Little Me" chronicles Belle's relentless clawing from humble beginnings on Striver's Row to the dazzling, yet often disastrous, heights of Hollywood's silver screen. With a name that literally means "beautiful bosom," Belle's career is a whirlwind of outrageous roles, a revolving door of husbands, lavish couture, and copious Pink Lady cocktails, all punctuated by international escapades and even a murder trial. This 'glittering spoof of celebrity' uses 150 'historic, hysterical photographs' to perfectly capture the essence of a woman whose 'sordid life' is as unforgettable as it is absurd. It’s a riotous, 'chick and cheeky' performance in book form, celebrating the camp and chaotic world of a star who truly believes the world revolves around her.
