Playing with Fire Zusammenfassung

Playing with Fire Nigel Havers

Urbane. Brilliant. Brave. Funny. Famous. Handsome. Nigel Havers is the real-life charmer you might expect. In a career that has taken him from a schoolboy production of A Midsummer Night's Dream to the red carpet on Oscar Night with Chariots of Fire, via starring roles in the West End Stage, classic television series like Don't Wait Up and a cameo in Little Britain, the Hollywood blockbusters that made him a household are only the beginning. With characteristic modesty and a captivating eye for the absurd, he treats us to the highlights and lowlights of a life like no other; a life in which chilling reality (watching his father Michael -- later the Attorney General -- begin his prosecution of the Yorkshire Ripper) and beguiling fantasy (sleeping with Elizabeth Taylor) continuously and arrestingly collide.

Playing with Fire Bewertungen

'This is a devil-may-care, extremely endearing book with not a luvvie line in it. Absolute bollocks. Total fun.' -- The Sunday Times 'Havers could charm the knickers off a nun. Wonderfully aristocratic-looking, a great raconteur... he comes across as the sort of man you would kill to have dinner with.' -- The Daily Mail 'Playing With Fire is a highly amusing read, self-deprecating, surprisingly well-written and it zips along at a rate of knots' -- Scotsman Magazine
