520    J. Paul ("Little Paul") Getty III, the grandson of Getty 
       Oil founder J. Paul Getty, may have been cursed by money 
       and privilege from the moment he was born. Falling in with
       the wrong people and practically abandoned by his famous 
       family, Getty was a child of his international jet-set era,
       moving from Marrakesh to Rome, from nightclubs to well-
       appointed drug dens. His high-profile kidnapping defines 
       the decade--and was permanently memorable for the ear that
       was mailed to his mother as evidence of the kidnappers' 
       intentions. Uncommon Youth is richly reported, and 
       includes many interviews with Getty himself conducted from
       the late 1970s to the early 2000s that raise new questions
       about the case. How much did he acquiesce to the 
       kidnappers? Why wouldn't his rich-as-Croesus grandfather 
       pay the ransom, which began at the equivalent of $550,000 
       in lire and bulged to $3.6 million as the months dragged 
       on? -- p. [2] of jacket.
