Miriam MargolyesPublished by John Murray on 16th September 2021 in hardback, priced at £20, also available in eBook and AudioThe long-awaited memoir from Britain’s favourite national treasure.
Find out how being conceived in an air-raid gave her curly hair; what pranks led to Miriam being known as the naughtiest girl Oxford High School ever had; how she ended up posing nude for Augustus John as a teenager; and what she did when Warren Beatty asked ‘Do you fuck?’. This wonderful memoir takes you on an extraordinary adventure through a truly independent mind and life. With a cast list stretching from Scorsese to Streisand, a cross-dressing Leonardo di Caprio to Isaiah Berlin, This Much Is True is as clever and self-critical, as warm and honest, as full of life and surprises, as its inimitable author.
Join us for an afternoon of laughter and fun.
