Description

London England: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1982. Hardback. First Edition. The Noel Coward Diaries. Slight shelf wear to edges of D/J. When Noel Coward died in 1973, he was as old as the century, and its most renowned dramatist, director and star. He left behind him over fifty plays, twenty-five films, hundreds of songs, two autobiographies, a novel, several volumes of short stories and countless poems, sketches, recordings and paintings, not to mention the memories of three generations of playgoers for whom so long ago he had set the style on and off the stage. Fortunately he also left diaries chronicling the last thirty years of his life. These are the years from 1940, when he was starting out on the war-time troop concert tours that were to give him a whole new career as a cabaret entertainer, through the private and profession depression of the early 1950s, when his beloved England seemed to turn almost whole-heartedly against him and his work, to the 1960s when he returned in triumph to receive his knighthood. Noel Coward's amazing zest and versatility are revealed in the scope of the diaries. 698 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 ,and all types of Academic Literature.) . First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Hardback.
