Więcej o książce
The complete memoirs of the late Spike Milligan are affectionately recounted by his close friend and agent, Norma Farnes, who worked with him for 35 years. As she navigated her role as his manager, she often faced the question, "What's he really like?" Over nearly thirty-six years, her responses varied but never captured the complexity of his character. After finding a secretarial position, she entered the vibrant world of Number Nine Orme Court, where Spike collaborated with other legendary comedy writers. Norma quickly became his manager, working alongside a man known for his brilliance and difficulties. In this heartfelt account, she explores Spike's life, from his childhood in India to his battles with mental restlessness, numerous affairs, and dedication to various causes. Through a wealth of anecdotes and insights, she reveals the essence of Spike and his relationships, including his tumultuous yet profound friendship with Peter Sellers. Norma Farnes crafts a moving portrait of her greatest friend, bringing Spike's fascinating and deeply human character to life on every page.
