A right royal bastard - Sarah Miles

For Sarah Miles,childhood wasn't easy.Dyslexic with a severe stammer,rebellion was her means of expression,animals and trees her friends.After she was sacked from Roedean and Crofton Grange,her mother lost all patience and packed her off toRADA.But RADA shared her mother's view-Sarah was impossible. On the loose in London,Sarah revealed a special talent for getting into trouble and an equal talent for acting.She landed herself a prestigious agent,fell in love with his son,lived with a prostitute and met and fell in love with Laurence Olivier. The first volume of Sarah Miles's three volume autobiography reveals a fresh and original voice.She tells her story with self-deprecating humour and beguiling honesty.No-one is spared,least of all herself.
