To Live in Paradise
To Live in Paradise
Editorial Reviews
Midwest Book Review
In Haiti, Renne Denis met and married a charismatic Italian adventurer, Gustav Dalla Valle. Four years later, despite Renee's misgivings, they moved to Los Angeles, where her spearfishing husband developed Scubapro and became a fiercely competitive businessman. His egotism and jealousy became intolerable, so Renee fled to French Polynesia. There she married a handsome but irresponsible Tahitian. Pursuing his own dreams of fortune, her husband, Teva, abandoned her, leaving her to cope with two small children and his traditional Polynesian parents. But Renee's tale has barely begun. To Live In Paradise is filled with fascinating stories,s and remarkable people, from Tahitian miracle cures and Club Med romances, to Renee's grandfather, Andre Roosevelt, her famous parents, and Marlon Brando. The circumstances of Renee Denis' life are unique, sometimes hilarious and sometimes heartrending as she shares her deepest feelings, her happiness and pain, her losses and strengths in a way that makes readers feel she's a long-lost friend returned at last from years of adventures.
