O knihe
Born in the shadow of Windsor
Castle in Great Britain, the author left England for the
Mediterranean in search of the sun. Adventures in several
capitals allowed him to meet other expatriates who crossed
deserts and mountains to observe conflicts, culture and
decolonisation. His artwork, photography and theatrical
presence left their mark in several cities, ending up as a
radio-television journalist and presenter for French State
media.
As an English expatriate, "Paris
Made Me..." offers an objective view of European evolution as
seen from France, souvenirs of helping Lawrence Durrell on
Cyprus when the island was becoming a Republic, performing
in a Roman temple in Lebanon and meeting Rudolf Nureyev and
Margot Fonteyn, capturing the city of Beirut in photographs
and filming in Copenhagen, before Paris beckoned him to
become a journalist for Paris Radio France Internationale
and Radio Australia, meeting such celebrities such as Orson
Wells, Audrey Hepburn, Maurice Chevalier, Peter Ustinov and
Jacques Brel.
