«Film Stars Don't Die in Liverpool» is Peter Turner's memoir of Gloria Grahame, published by Penguin in paperback (144 pages, in English).
Peter Turner evokes his intense relationship with Gloria Grahame, star of classic Hollywood, and the reunion that led her to spend her final days in the author's family home in Liverpool. The narrative combines tenderness and humor to portray the fragility of stardom and the bonds that survive a love story already over.
The work was originally published in 1986; the events narrated take place in 1981, when Gloria Grahame, an Oscar winner, sought refuge at Peter Turner's home.
For readers interested in classic Hollywood and the lives of its actors, told from a personal perspective.
