Reviews
This is an absolutely delightful volume of witty reminiscence from a generally underated composer. Previn writes of his early days in Hollywood as a film composer and conductor. The highlight is a sidesplittingly hilarious encounter with Ava Gardner, which he must still laugh about. A super read.
