Product Description
The concluding volume of Coward's autobiography includes his travels in South America, Hollywood encounters with an array of contemporary stars, including Cary Grant and Franklin Roosevelt, and his theatrical successes. Future Indefinite sees Coward transformed from a "brazen, odious little prodigy" into one of the most exuberant characters of the British stage. Noel Coward was born in Middlesex in 1899. His plays include Hay Fever, Private Lives, Blithe Spirit, and Design for Living. He was knighted in 1970 and died three years later in Jamaica.

The Latter Pieces of Coward's Style November 7, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is a hugely subjective autobiography, penned by one of the most legendary playwright/lyricist/ composer/ entertainer combinations of the last century. For scholars and devotees of Coward's life experiences and his wittly elegant use of vocabulary and phraseology: it is highly valuable. Also of note are Coward's individualistic, personal turn of phrase and the inclusion of persnal habits and mannerisms of daily living: writing, sitting down to tea, fashion, dressing,social graces and vast friendships. To find more of the legendary playwright's private life and what exactly inspired him to write, other objective biographies need to be consulted.
