- Book Synopsis
- The Neverending Dance is a true tale of what happened to me from summer 1967 till December 1968 in London, Paris and Rome, told in verse. Paris's left bank, Roma Dolce Vita, and the Cannes Film Festival-almost everyone mentioned was well known in their own fields. When I wrote it, I felt as if I had lifted off the ground, almost flying with joy at the memory of it. It was another time, different from today's time.
- About The Author
- Contessa Veonica's life is a tapestry of diverse experiences. Adopted by one of the world's leading cancer surgeons, she spent her childhood on a farm. Her early career was eclectic, spanning nursing and modelling for prestigious fashion houses like Worth Couture and Hartnell. In the vibrant 1960s, she became a key figure in London's cultural scene, initiating the Flower Child movement and contributing to the iconic Swinging London fashion. Her artistic pursuits led her to acting for the BBC and later dancing in clubs and at the Roundhouse. Her performances even took her to Paris, where she worked with the legendary Salvador Dalì. Italy became her next home, where she immersed herself in the film industry. She appeared in several notable Italian productions, including "Death in Venice," "Love and Anarchy", and "La Vacanza". In 1975, she transitioned to focus on writing and visual arts full-time. Her adventurous spirit has taken her across the globe, with extended stays in England, France, Italy, the USA, and India. She believes she pioneered the first Rainforest Films in Rome in 1969. Recently, she completed an extensive 100-hour autobiographical film, which awaits editing. Her artistic output remains prolific, with a recent series of about 2,000 small paintings showcasing her enduring creativity.
