This explosive narrative reveals for the first time the shocking hidden years of Coco Chanel's life: her collaboration with the Nazis in Paris, her affair with a master spy, and her work for the German military intelligence service and Himmler's SS. Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel was the high priestess of couture who created the look of the modern woman. By the 1920s she had amassed a fortune and went on to create an empire. But her life from 1941 to 1954 has long been shrouded in rumor and mystery, never clarified by Chanel or her many biographers. Hal Vaughan exposes the truth of her wartime collaboration and her long affair with the playboy Baron Hans G nther von Dincklage--who ran a spy ring and reported directly to Goebbels. Vaughan pieces together how Chanel became a Nazi agent, how she escaped arrest after the war and joined her lover in exile in Switzerland, and how--despite suspicions about her past--she was able to return to Paris at age seventy and rebuild the iconic House of Chanel.Binding Type: Paperback

Great book, but no new info for a huge Homer fan...
Format: Hardcover
Neat book, but anyone who is a huge Homer fan, like my husband (who the book was for) will not learn anything new - so I am told. Although there is a ton of great info in there about Homer and his friends/everyday life, it's a huge disappointment to hear that he already knows everything in the book. I guess that's a super-fan for you!

To funny
Format: Hardcover
If you’ve seen the show, then the book is just as funny. It takes all of Homer’s “advice” and puts it into a cute book. I have it on my shelf next to my Duff energy drink

Funny and unexpected
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book for my girlfriend who is a big Ralph Wiggum fan. When it arrived, I was shocked to see what a thorough exploration of the character it was. I'm not saying it's all canon in terms of the show, as i saw some complaints that there was stuff in this book that wouldn't make sense to the Ralph character (such as his love for Lisa) due to them "breaking up" in a past episode, but come on, that's a hogwash complaint. The whole point of this book is to entertain, and it does so in spades, so it comes highly recommended. And this is coming from a huge 'The Simpsons' fan himself.
Oh, and by the way, my girlfriend loved it, too.
