Critics Review

A wonderful tour of the world’s top tables…the charm of this book lies in the powerful love between her and Pinter…Her account of Pinter’s last days, roaring like a lion in the face of death, are deeply moving. – Kate Saunders * TIMES *Brave but often funny in its account of a scandal that became a destiny, it teaches modern lovers a lesson that many will need to learn: how to say the long goodbye. – Boyd Tonkin * INDEPENDENT *Combining disarming emotional frankness with restrained elegance, Antonia Fraser weaves her diary entries and memories into a compelling and moving history of a long, passionate relationship. – Katie Owen * SUNDAY TIMES *The quiet brilliance of this book steals up on you… it’s funny, clever and controlled… there is so much generosity here and so much love that by the final page, in a London hospital on Christmas Eve 2008, I was in tears. * GUARDIAN *An uplifting, warm and moving tribute * GOOD BOOK GUIDE *
