A rollicking memoir by one of the greatest (and most outrageous) supermodels of the 1970s. Janice Dickinson was not only the first of the supermodels, she endured a nightmarishly traumatic childhood at the hands of a sadistic, sexually and emotionally abusive father, and emerged in the early 1970s as the first lushlipped exotic brunette to break into a modelling world dominated by sunny California blondes.

Tried to run, Tried to hide
Break on through to the other side

Hollywood, Florida. February 28, 1969. I am going out of my head. It is ten oclock at night and I am lying in bed and I hear my fathers footfalls on the stairs. They are getting louder, more distinct. He reaches the landing and approaches and pauses outside my door. I hold my breath. He opens the door. I pretend to be asleep. I can picture him standing there, silhouetted against the dim light in the hallway. He hates me. The hatred comes off him in waves.
