"On The Wings of an Angel" book

There's a new book on Asia, privately published and availible on ebay:

Quote:
'On the Wings of an Angel' is the first major publication dedicated to Asia Argento, the scarlet diva. This large A4 200 page biography also covers her acting, directing, modelling, writing, d-jaying, and her highly stylized artwork at length. Finally completed by over 380 photographs & 38 detailed synopses spanning her entire catalogue of films, this is a must- have for her ever growing legion of fans.

Reviews all her movies up to Diamond 13...

Thanks for the heads-up.
Is this book available from a store anywhere? Only the ebay seller has 0 feedback.
I wonder if Mariana knows anything about this and can confirm whether the book is a genuine release?

I've e-mailed Mariana to see if she knows anything about this book.

The book's legit. The guy who wrote it was at Birmigham NEC on Sunday looking for distribution, he's been writing it for a while and has been in contact with Asia over the years, so it should be pretty accurate...

Hi Sandy,

This is not an authorized book. I talked to Asia after you emailed me (coincidentally the author emailed me yesterday as well, asking me to help promote his book) and she wasn't aware of it. She's curious about it though.

So I can only tell you that she wasn't aware of the book, but that, yes, the book exists and the author contacted me.

Nice photo you got. There's another one from this session! It was for Paris Match. If I find it in my messy hard disk, I'll send it your way.

Take care,
Mariana
