This Much is True

'There is no one on earth quite so wonderful' STEPHEN FRY Award-winning actor, creator of a myriad of memorable characters from Lady Whiteadder to Professor Sprout, Miriam Margolyes is a national treasure. Now, at last, at the age of 80, she has finally decided to tell her extraordinary life story. And it's richer and stranger than any part she's played. With a cast list stretching from Scorsese to Streisand, Leonardo di Caprio to Isaiah Berlin, packed with unforgettable stories ranging from posing nude for Augustus John to being bullied by Monty Python, from swearing on University Challenge to being told off by the Queen, this book is as warm and honest, as full of life and surprises, as she is.
