The Relationship Between Joan Dadeon and Warren Beatty

A lot of the narrative around Joan Dadeon that's been built since the White Album and her earlier essay work is about their contentious relationship in lieu of knowing how he dies later on. And she tries to come to grips with it and the issues surrounding their daughter as well. She gives everyone the impression of being very private, then she'll turn around and write this inside of the stomach stuff that you'd think you'd need to know her five years to find out. This mousy, thin, quiet woman tells you as much about herself as a mailer.
