Cloth. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Round the Next Corner. Previous owners name and date written neatly to inside cover. Slightly sunned spine. Red cloth with gilt lettering. With a Foreword by Paul Scofield. This book is a full-length life story and is intended for a wider and more general circle of readers. It is not just an actor's reminiscences, although I was an actor and nothing else for many years. But being never in my heart entrirely committed to that life, I gave it up for good at a critical peak in my progress, just at the point when I believe I had discovered that incommunicable secret of relaxation in the art of acting which is every player's aim. Part II of this book is account of the things that happened to me after I left the stage in 1954. It tells of the secondary vocations and the many surprises I found waiting for me round the corners. Illustrated. 190 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, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).…
