The Diaries of Kenneth Tynan, Paperback / softback Book

The Diaries of Kenneth Tynan Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

A brilliant and feared critic, Kenneth Tynan was a nabob of the National Theatre alongside Laurence Olivier, and he was also the daring impresario who created "Oh Calcutta".

He was a notorious eccentric, a louche sophisticate: connoisseur of cuisine, wine, literature and women.

Where else could you find such a judicious blend of aesthetics, theatre lore, love, marriage, sex and politics?

These sizzling diaries will remind older readers of a man whose reputation as the greatest critic of the twentieth century is still unchallenged and introduce younger readers to an electrifying writer who simply could not be boring.
