"Slipstream" by Elizabeth Howard
In this candid and remarkable memoir, Elizabeth Jane Howard tells the story of her eventful life, using her skills as a novelist to reveal the friends, family and times that she knew and loved.
Her circle of friends has included some of the most interesting writers and thinkers of the day- Laurie Lee, Arthur Keostler, Olivia Manning, Cyril Connolly, Ken Tynan and Cyril Day-Lewis, among many others.
She has been married three times - firstly to Peter Scott, the naturalist and son of Peter Scott, and famously and tempestuously to Kingsley Amis.
Slipstream is a superlative work of autobiography. Honest and unflinching, it brilliantly illuminates the literary world of the latter half of the twentieth century, and gives a deeply personal insight into the life and mind of one of the most loved English writers.
