Where Madness Lies: The Double life of Vivien Leigh ( ft. Lyndsy Spence)

In this episode, Eliana sits down with Lyndsy Spence to discuss her book Where Madness Lies: The Double Life of Vivien Leigh. Where Madness Lies explores the life of Vivien Leigh, the celebrated actress known for her iconic roles in Gone with the Wind and A Streetcar Named Desire, and her turbulent twenty-year relationship with Laurence Olivier. Beginning in 1953 with a devastating breakdown and institutionalization, the book delves into Leigh’s struggle with undiagnosed bipolar disorder, her mistreatment by the medical system, and the emotional toll of Olivier’s infidelity as she fought to reclaim her life and career.
