Jackie Collins

Survival Kit | May 6, 2010
Jackie Collins has been called the “Charles Dickens of Beverly Hills”, “The Victor Hugo of our time” and “Hollywood’s own Marcel Proust.” Her sizzling bestsellers, including Hollywood Wives, Dangerous Kiss, Lethal Seduction and Deadly Embrace, chronicle, in lurid detail, the exploits of the rich and famous.They have sold over 300 million copies in more than 40 countries, and have been made into numerous films and TV miniseries. I’ve now invited her to take on the mantle of the “Tolstoy of the Yaak Valley”, and share the contents of her survival kit with me.
Her list:
1. cd of Marvin Gaye's What's Goin' On
2. digital camera
3. cd of Marc Anthony's Mended
4. a guitar, so I can learn to play!
5. the audio version of Deadly Embrace, which I recently recorded and have not yet had time to listen to
6. dvd of The Godfather Trilogy
7. the Norah Jones cd Come Away With Me
8. F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby"
