5.0 out of 5 stars
An extremely intelligent, heartfelt account of a man's life,
By A Customer
This review is from: Short Walk from Harrods (Word for word audio books) (Audio Cassette)
Mr. Bogarde has written a book that is so personal and engaging, the reader feels as though he is peeking into a private diary. Each sentence is exact and necessary. There is no flowery narrative, no swanking, no attempt to remind us that he is a film star. It is a simply written, glowing example of a man's desire to share a deeply private part of his life and of himself. Any reader who has enjoyed Mr. Bogarde's prior works will not be disappointed. (Please note his name is DIRK, not Dick)

This is a lovely book, a really honest and heartfelt description of a phase in Dirk Bogarde's life that was both wonderfully happy and crushingly sad. It could be a very depressing book, but somehow it reads delightully. As an aside it is also a lovely insight into the delights of Provence, so well portrayed by Peter Mayle in his Provence trilogy. I highly recommend it.
