Lya De Putti: Loving Life and Not Fearing Death by: Peter Herzog, Romano Tozzi
Hardcover. NY, Corvin, 1st, 1993, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright dust jacket, 121 pages. Includes a bibliography and filmography. Lya de Putti's star shone for such a short time. Her star-making role in Variety, with Emil Jannings, happened just six years prior to her death. There's not a lot of information available about her but the authors have put together what they were able to find in a well-written, interesting manner. The turmoil, the films and the foibles are all here for reading purposes. INSCRIBED BY HERZOG on title page. Clean copy.
