My Name Escapes Me by Alec Guinness
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 644kb
Overview: Alec Guinness' diary, small portions of which first appeared in the Spectator in the early nineties. The volume is a delightful collection of observations, anecdotes, and reminisces that range over acting, politics, and religion.
"His diary for the eighteen months from January 1995 to June 1996 is a book of immense charm and the source of almost undiluted pleasure. Imagine a lucky dip where each entry comes up with a prize and you will have some measure of the writing"—Michael Arditti in the Daily Mail
"What makes him a good diarist is precisely what over the years has made him such a fine actor: an ironically observant eye ... [his diary] reveals the octogenarian spryness of a civilized mind, and a beguiling mixture of the meditative and hedonistic. If St Augustine dined at the Connaught, the result would be Alec Guinness"—Michael Billington in the Guardian
