First Edition, Binding: Cloth, Very Good/Good. 8vo - over 7Â¾" - 9Â¾" tall Hardback Translator, biographer, scholar, and man of the theatre, Michael Meyer has known many of the leading literary and theatrical figures of the past 40 years. As a young man he met Bernard Shaw and Max Beerbohm. He was a close friend of George Orwell, Graham Greene, with whom he travelled round the world, Arthur Koestler, Mervyn Peake and Ralph Richardson, and worked with many of the great actors and directors including Laurence Olivier and Ingmar Bergman. In these memoirs he paints portraits and often hilarious pen portraits of them and many others including Siegfried Sassoon, W. H. Auden, Vita Sackville-West, Francois Truffaut and Trevor Howard. His play-going memories cover 60 years; as a boy he saw Gerld du Maurier, Marie Tempest and the young Gielgud and Oliver, and later got to know actors such as Maggie Smith, Brian Cox and Stacy Keach when they were still amateurs or at drama school. He also writes of his years in Scandinavia, his failure as a war time scientist and unwilling British agent, his wanderings in the Far East, the problems of translation and biography, and great bores whom he has known.

First Edition, Binding: Cloth, Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7Â¾" - 9Â¾" tall Harback Hardback. Previous owners name and date to inside cover. I have divided the book into four sections: Musical Plays, Revues, Silhouettes - these are portraits of great music-hall artists - and Pantomimes. You will not find everything here, of course. The book runs to some 100,000 words, as against the million or so which I must have written about light entertainments of various kinds.I hold that if you have anything worth-while to say about Shakespeare or Congreve, Shaw or Eugene O'Neill, it doesn't matter very much how you say it, since the stuff will carry the style. But that when your material is the 'lady trifles' of a Sophie Tucker or a Nervo and Knox, the words you choose, and their order, are of the first importance. 264 pp. ( We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.) .
