*Available for Pre-order now * A major and definitive portrait of Sir Michael Gambon, one of the greatest actors of the last fifty years.Jasper Rees, the acclaimed Sunday Times bestselling author of Lets Do It: The Authorised Biography of Victoria Wood, interviewed Gambon more than any other journalist alive. In this deeply personal, moving, and funny biography, Rees has been granted exclusive access to Gambons personal archive and effects. Rees has interviewed over one hundred actors, playwrights and directors who, over a career that spanned more than half a century, witnessed some of Gambons most magnificent performances. With touching accounts from Penelope Wilton, Alan Ayckbourn, Brian Cox, Eileen Atkins, David Hare, Judi Dench, Christopher Hampton, Simon Russell Beale, Richard Eyre, Patricia Hodge, Simon Callow, Stephen Poliakoff and his closest friend in theatre, Oliver Cotton.The biography spans Gambons epoch-defining roles on stage, television and screen: the early years as a spear-carrier in Laurence Oliviers newly formed National Theatre, his pre-eminence as an interpreter of Harold Pinter and Alan Ayckbourn, the triumphs in The Life of Galileo and A View from the Bridge, and the screen roles that won him global fame, from Philip Marlow in The Singing Detective to Dumbledore in the Harry Potter films. Both heart-warming and surprising, this is a book that enriches our understanding of an acting legend who was as hilarious and elusive off stage renowned for spinning mischievously tall tales as he was mesmerising and chameleon-like on stage. _______________________________________________________________Praise for Sir Michael Gambon:Michael Gambon was one of the most brilliant, effortless actors Ive ever had the privilege of working with, but despite his immense talent, the thing I will remember most about him is how much fun he had doing his job Daniel RadcliffeMichael was a wonderful man in addition to being an outstanding actor, and I absolutely loved working with him, not only on Potter but also The Casual Vacancy. The first time I ever laid eyes on him was in King Lear, in 1982, and if youd told me then that brilliant actor would appear in anything Id written, Id have thought you were insane J.K. RowlingHe was hugely amusing, and such a tremendous guest, we even named a corner after him Jeremy Clarkson He was such a magnificent human being and the impact he had on my life and that of many others was profound Daniel Craig

Canada The true north strong and free in the words of its national anthem is the subject of this exhilarating new travel book from Paul Theroux: both a journey into the past and a cross-country road trip in the present, at a pivotal point in Canadas history.A vastly diverse and geographically scattered nation of forty million people, Canada is now threatened with annexation as the 51st state by the US President, beyond the longest undefended border in the world. This threat has had the effect of unifying the nation, inspiring patriotism, and encouraging the normally laconic Canadians to be forthcoming, ideal for a traveller with a gift for listening.For Theroux, this journey is also personal: his ancestor Antoine Theroux left Gascony in 1693 to become a pioneer in Nouvelle France and to settle in the small village of Yamaska, where many Therouxs still live and thrive. He recounts the riveting story of Antoine, illuminating the deeper, and often darker, history of Canada, before hitting the road from Yamaska, to explore the length and breadth of the country.From the farthest east in Newfoundland to the west in Vancouver, Theroux travels the highways linking Quebec, Montreal, Toronto and the huge cities of the prairies an archipelago of urban islands, surrounded by vast, often pristine landscapes. Along the way he meets farmers and fishermen, writers and activists, new immigrants and old timers each a vital part of this True North, each hoping for it to remain strong and free.With his remarkable gift for description and narrative, and his zest for the open road, Paul Theroux remains the most compelling, searching and evocative of travel writers.
