John Gielgud by Gyles Brandreth
A celebration of the life of John Gielgud through interviews and personal accounts‘A testimony to Gyles Brandreth’s talent … Avoiding the usual tedious cradle-to-grave narrative, Brandreth braids Gielgud’s own reminiscences with those from friends and colleaguesWhat sets this apart from the usual kind of puff is Brandreth’s own voice, directing our responses to Gielgud’s art.’ – Kathryn Hughes, Daily Telegraph
‘Full of personal detail … a treasure trove of anecdote but also clear and informative … Brandreth’s immaculate, charming and deceptively modest book … fascinating.’ – Carole Woddis, Glasgow Herald
‘Cometh the hour, cometh the biography.’ – Stratford-upon-Avon Herald
