Quite divine. It's a rare feast that of writing fiction and non- equally as well. Dodie's memoirs are an enchanting, eccentric and warm read. I fell in love with this book and I'm now quite determined to read the rest of her memoirs, if only Slightly Foxed would be so kind as to reprint the volumes.
