Delightful. I've picked two quotes, almost at random, but this is rich prose which demands thought. It's also wickedly funny and a great read.
I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a cop copy to the Bookbag.
Although not quite in the same league we've read a couple of other books about the acting profession lately. You might like to have a look at [[The Little Shadows by Marina Endicott]] and [[The Forgotten Lies by Kerry Jamieson]]. Would you like to know more about [[The Invention of Angela Carter by Edmund Gordon|Angela Carter]]?
