Fast and Louche by Jeremy Scott

PG Wodehouse wrote that 'the three essentials for an autobiography are that its compiler shall have had an eccentric father, a miserable misunderstood childhood and a hell of a time at his public school - and I had none of these advantages'. Jeremy Scott had them all and then went on to: have an Evelyn Waughesque youth; poison a battalion of the British Army (deliberately); try to work as a gigolo (his only client was a Guggenheim); get a British Prime Minister high on drugs; tangle with Lord Lucan; have Paul Newman's daughter fall in love with him; and live with Peter Mayle, his best friend, in Provence.
Born into the eccentric decaying upper classes, Jeremy Scott had a spectacularly successful life in advertising in the 1960s and 1970s until reinventing himself, first in Provence and then as an ascetic, whose life was saved by Marcus Aurelius ten years agoThis is his story.
