In response to all those readers who enthused about his book, The Prince, The Showgirl and Me, and who begged for more, Colin Clark has written a delightful, amusing, irreverent people-packed account of his encounters, professional and otherwise, with some of the leading cultural and social figures of our time.
Younger son of ‘Lord Clark of Civilisation’ and younger brother of the notorious diarist MP Alan Clark, Colin Clark describes, in these informal memoirs, his own encounters as a documentary film-maker and well-connected socialite with all the important, amusing, crazy, talented people whose company he has so much enjoyed: people like his brother Alan, John Osborne, Alistair Cooke, Robert Boothby, Malcolm Sargent, the Queen Mother, Prince Charles, Henry Moore, Graham Sutherland, Margot Fonteyn, Norman Mailer, Noël Coward, William Wharton, Rudolf Nureyev, Sammy Davis, Goldie Hawn, Andy Warhol, Laurence Olivier and Vivien Leigh, and many more.
