She wrote three volumes of autobiography...books which are likely to hold their interest for a long time to come
The Times
Lady Diana was no ordinary upper-class English rose: She was perhaps the first person from such a background to go on the stage, wowing audiences on both sides of the Atlantic
Washington Times
Admired and adored as a classic beauty and first-division socialite during the frivolous Twenties and Thirties, Lady Diana was one of the last survivors of the set which revolved around the Prince of Wales and Mrs Simpson
The Times
One of the glittering social personalities of an era of wealth and privilege, combining as she did exceptional grace and beauty with verve and a nature of deep and intense feeling
The Times
The second volume of Lady Diana Cooper'[s memoirs covers her life from 1923 to the outbreak of war in 1939. During those years she became a famous English personality, as a woman of prodigious beauty, as a remarkable actress and as the unconventional wife of a British statesman.
Spectator
A chronicle of people and events written with her particular brio and with her especial blend of the comic and the compassionate, and it is, too, a story of loyalties. Impulsive, natural, amusing, revealing and never for an instant pedestrian
