Smiling in Slow Motion by Derek Jarman
This autobiography, taken from his diaries of 1991-94, interweaves Jarman's harrowing account of physical decline and failing eyesight with wonderfully poetic and detailed descriptions of the changing seasons of Dungeness, his meetings with Tennant, Freud and others, his thoughts on his sex life and his love for his boyfriend.Julia Jarman has won the Stockport Schools' Book Award twice for her lively picture book texts. Julia used to be a teacher but was encouraged to start writing by her three children who asked for 'real characters like us'. When she became a grandmother, it provided the perfect inspiration for her picture book texts. Julia often visits schools and libraries where she enjoys sharing her enthusiasm for facts and fiction. Julia lives near Bedford.
