Last Post (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Carcanet Press Ltd, Manchester, 2023
ISBN 10: 1800173032 ISBN 13: 9781800173033
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Last Post has a double life; it both sounds for the gallant fallen and recalls what spurred freelance journalists, in all those yesterdays before e-mail, to get their copy in the pillar-box by deadline time. Frederic Raphael's compendium, written in the lively equivalent of the French epistolary second person singular, is a rare mixture of loud salutes, occasional raspberries and affectionate farewells.Its intimacy delivers frankness that formal biography, however plumped with proper sources, seldom achieves. As the parade goes by, Last Post becomes what classicists call a 'prosopography'. Raphael's own versatility shows up in the varieties of tone and vocabulary in long letters of tribute to the two Stanleys Kubrick and Donen, Ken Tynan, Leslie Bricusse, Tom Maschler, Dorothy Nimmo the known and the less known but no less valued; finally, above all, in farewell to his beloved daughter Sarah. A book of celebrity letters from the award-winning screenwriter Frederic Raphael. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
