Description

The "graceful, loving" (The New York Times Book Review), never-before-told story of Hollywood icon Natalie Wood's glamorous life, sudden death, and lasting legacy, written by her daughter, Natasha Gregson Wagner.

Natasha Gregson Wagner's mother, Natalie Wood, was a child actress who became a legendary movie star, the dark-haired beauty of Splendor in the Grass and West Side Story. She and Natasha's stepfather, the actor Robert Wagner, were a Hollywood it-couple twice over, first in the 1950s, and then again when they remarried in the '70s. To Natasha, she was, above all, a doting, loving mom.

But Natalie's sudden death by drowning off Catalina Island at the age of 43 devastated her family, turned Robert Wagner into a person of interest, and transformed a vibrant wife, mother, and actress into a figure of tragedy. The weekend has long been shrouded in rumors and scandalous tabloid speculation, but until now there has never been an account of how the events and their aftermath were experienced by Natalie's beloved eldest daughter. Here, for the first time, is a "deeply intimate chronicle of life with her famous mother and how Wood's death devastated the family" (Los Angeles Times).

Cutting through the shadow hanging over her mother's legacy, More Than Love is a "poignant" (The Washington Post) tale of a daughter coming to terms with her grief, as well as a "revealing new look at Natalie Wood" (Good Morning America).
