| Synopsis: |
A brilliant and feared critic, Kenneth Tynan was a nabob of the National Theatre alongside Laurence Olivier, and he was also the daring impresario who created "Oh Calcutta". He was a notorious eccentric, a louche sophisticate: connoisseur of cuisine, wine, literature and women. Where else could you find such a judicious blend of aesthetics, theatre lore, love, marriage, sex and politics? These sizzling diaries will remind older listeners of a man whose reputation as the greatest critic of the twentieth century is still unchallenged and introduce younger ones to an electrifying writer who simply could not be boring. |
