A Book of Secrets. . .
Another book to add to the must-read pile. Michael Holroyd is a favourite author of mine - I've read several of his books, including his biographies of Lytton Strachey and Henry Irving and Ellen Terry. His books of memoir have also proved fascinating. This review in The Telegraph has peaked my interest in his latest book - especially as it continues the story of Violet Trefusis, in her post-Vita years.
