Dabei erinnert sie sich an Erlebnisse mit echten Größen, die sie gekannt hat - Alfred Hitchcock, Elizabeth Taylor, Frank Sinatra, die beiden Jacks (Lemmon und Nicholson) - und sinniert über das Hollywood von gestern und heute. Und sie erinnert sich an ihre Beziehungen und Liebesaffären mit Politikern (darunter zwei Premierminister), Wissenschaftlern, Journalisten und Schauspielerkollegen.

'The Santiago Camino has been traversed for thousands of years by saints, sinners, generals, misfits, kings and queens. It is done with the intent to find one's deepest spiritual meaning and resolutions regarding conflicts in Self' - from the Introduction Shirley MacLaine is far more than a Hollywood legend - for the last three decades she has continued with her brave and public commitment to chronicling her personal quest for spiritual understanding. A truly inspirational woman, Shirley was prompted to take part in the annual pilgrimage along the Camino de Santiago de Compostela in Spain after receiving two anonymous letters imploring her to take the difficult trip. In her mid-sixties, Shirley managed to finish the nearly 500-mile trek in only thirty days - a phenomenal achievement. Throughout history, many illustrious pilgrims from all over Europe have taken up the trail, from St Francis of Assisi to Dante and Chaucer. Now it is Shirley's turn. With rich insight, humility and her trademark grace, Shirley MacLaine gently leads us through the range of astonishing and liberating visions and revelations that are revealed to her as she walked the pilgrimage. THE CAMINO promises readers the journey of a thousand lifetimes.
