Sylvia's life was short, but it was lived to the fullest.
I’m halfway through Red Comet and I wanted to share how magnificent I think Sylvia’s life was. Even though she left us way too soon, I think she lived her life to the absolute fullest... she crushed it academically, won several awards for her art, studied at great colleges, traveled a lot, met a lot of guys, went to parties, spent wonderful days at the beach... The more I read, the more blown away I am by how much of a life-lover she was, at least in my view so far. What an interesting woman! I was familiar with her work, but when it came to her personal life, I only knew the surface, and with this biography... wow! I totally get why she is so analyzed to this day. I'm honestly dying to keep reading and looking at the photos... it’s so good to have so much material to dive into.
