Jackie Collins : the creator of Lucky Santangelo has died

Tributes have been pouring in for the novelist Jackie Collins after her death was announced earlier today.  Jackie, aged 77,  wrote 32 novels about Hollywood glamour full of steamy sex and drugs , and all her books have appeared on The New York Times bestsellers list and  sold over 500 million copies in total . She was the younger sister of actress Joan Collins.
The Collins sisters were born in wartime London in a world far removed from the glittering fast paced show biz life that they ended up living, and that came to be portrayed in Jackie’s racy novels. The fame and celebrity of the sisters was the subject of an affectionate and hilarious parody by the comic duo French & Saunders  called ‘Lucky Bitches’ and it serves now as a wonderful reminder of how Jackie Collins made such a forceful impact on the world.
