Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0747558418, Paperback)

Irreverent, indiscreet, wildly funny, sad, shocking and inspiring, the diaries of Kenneth Tynan are legendary. For over three decades, on both sides of the Atlantic, Tynan was at the hot centre of the theatre and film worlds. He knew everybody; and everybody wanted to know him. His diaries bear witness to the fame he courted and the price he paid for it.A brilliant and feared critic, Tynan was a notorious eccentric, a louche sophisticate: connoisseur of cuisine, wine, literature and women. These sizzling diaries will remind older listeners of a man whose reputation as one of the greatest critics of the twentieth century is still unchallenged and introduce younger ones to an electrifying writer who simply could not be boring.Running Time: Approx 3 hoursAbridged
