A surprisingly deprecating autobiography from one of the most exciting actresses to emerge in the 1960s particularly in the work of her great friend Samuel Beckett.
A warm and wise memoir from an actress who reacted instinctively to every role and whose retirement from the stage in the 1980s left the theatre world a poorer place.

Excellent theatre biography: Billie Whitelaw has written a very intelligent autobiography. Her painful memories of her childhood during World War II in England are very interesting. Her experiences in the theatre and some of the great actors she has worked with are a theatre goers delight. She also tells of a painful marriage with a great deal of candor. Well worth reading by a classy lady.
