The volume brings together Dirk Bogarde's non-fiction writings: articles on the French Riviera, portraits of colleagues such as Joseph Losey or Charlotte Rampling, reviews and fragments of autobiography.

For readers of biographies, memoirs and cultural journalism, as well as for those interested in Dirk Bogarde and classic British cinema.
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".
