From the rear cover

Huth has what every aspiring writer most desires: a distinctive voice, dry, witty and utterly clear-eyed' Daily Mail

At the age of five Angela Huth decided she would become a writer. Hers was an idiosyncratic childhood. Her parents were known to be a highly glamorous couple: Harold was a famous actor and film director who possessed legendary charm; Bridget was known for her lively sense of humour, fluency in foreign languages and her penchant for giving memorable parties. But in spite of her parents' initial happiness, they parted after the war. Eleven years later they got back together, happily, though each would have a lover for decades.

After her education ended prematurely, Angela Huth went from reluctant debutante to professional writer, switching from journalism to short stories, novels, plays for television and the stage. Not the Whole Story is the long-awaited memoir from one of our best-loved English authors. It is a beautifully written and candid portrait of a writer's life.

'This elegantly written, witty memoir tells the story of [Huth's] unconventional and fascinating life . . . A remarkably candid book on a life lived in full, capturing a world as lost as Elizabeth Bowen's novels' The Lady

'The wit and keen powers of observation for which Huth's novels are known are not diminished a bit in this elegant and joyful memoir' Tatler
