Year of the Snake, Paperback / softback Book

Year of the Snake Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This book is essentially a hybrid. As a memoir it is written in the third person, Eddie and his alter ego the snake.

Born into a war-ravaged London, he is forced into a premature career as an actor to augment the family finances.

As a series of short stories it documents the range of unusual activities experienced by him as he grows up working in the theatre, films, TV and radio of the era.

As a documentary it charts the landscape and extreme characters of a class-ridden and prejudiced England, now almost unrecognisable.

As a reference book it contains detailed stories of a kind unobtainable on Google for TV or film dramatists.
