Synopsis: |
Joyce Grenfell's irresistible collection of poetry and writings gathered together by her friend and biographer Janie Hampton. "My Kind of Magic" is a charming collection of articles and poems from the celebrated English writer and entertainer, Joyce Grenfell. This is a sparkling compilation of writings of every kind, from treasured recipes to tales of the places Joyce herself was happiest in. The best things in Joyce Grenfell's view were often unexpected - blackbirds in January, the musty smell of old books or dusk in an East Anglian cornfield. For her, these small flashes of joy and inspiration were scattered amongst the everyday. Her idea of comfort was 'no draughts, no overhead lighting, hot water all the year round and no noises about it being the summer'. During her life she amassed an eclectic collection that she planned one day to put together in a scrapbook, but never got round to doing it. Now, finally, these pieces have been set down for the enjoyment of all.Her biographer and friend, Janie Hampton, has woven together the little bits of magic from Joyce's life into a beautiful and endearing memento for those who loved her wit and observant intelligence, or simply for those who want to join in the fun. |
