«For the Time Being: Collected Journalism» is the collection of journalistic articles by Dirk Bogarde, published by Viking in hardcover.
After twenty years in France, Bogarde returned to London in the late eighties, where he began literary criticism. John Coldstream brings together eight years of that output: portraits of Charlotte Rampling and Joseph Losey, memories of the Riviera, a satire on London dinners, and reviews on the Holocaust.
English-language volume of 320 pages published in 1998, edited by John Coldstream with an index; the endpapers include illustrations.
For readers interested in cultural journalism, classic cinema, and British life, as well as in Bogarde's figure as actor and writer.
Sir Dirk Bogarde was an English actor, novelist and screenwriter. Initially a matinée idol in films such as Doctor in the House (1954) for the Rank Organisation, he later acted in art house films, evolving from "heartthrob to icon of edginess".
