Basil Street Blues:

A family story

by Michael Holroyd Bestselling biographer Michael Holroyd turns his attention upon himself and his family. Born into a family rich in eccentricity, Holroyd was largely brought up by his grandparents, because his exotic Swedish mother and reserved English father couldn't live together. In this brave book he reveals an extraordinary tale, part detective story, part family saga, part voyage of self-discovery.

'This is a wonderful, searching, very personal book, which explores the dark depths from which art springs.' Julian Mitchell, The Spectator post FREE in the UK Save £2 £15.50 (rrp 17.50)
