Here is one of the first copies of my book which arrived today, it's not for Australia or America but for you. I hope, if you've time to read it, you'll like it & think the finished article looks pure, well. I've written to Lionel (?) and Eric Hiscock as you kindly said I ought. My love to you, yours ever, Denys". From the back cover: "Denys Blakelock has long been known as a distinguished actor and as a pioneer in radio and television. It is, however, only in the last decade that his reputation has grown as a writer and poet, as an instructor in the drama teaching world, and as an authority on diction and Standard English. His first book, Advice To A Player, Letters to a Young Actor, could be described as a standard work. It is presented as a parting gift to students of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, where the author taught diction and audition technique from 1947-1962. These further letters of advice are of a maturer nature. They cover a wider field and should be of assistance to actors of all ages, to teachers and to anyone interested in Speech and in the Art of Acting." Condition: This copy is in good plus condition. There is light wear to the covers and tanning to the page edges but otherwise a solid copy. Signed by Author(s). …

Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Round the Next Corner. Previous owners name and date written neatly to inside cover. Slightly sunned spine. Red cloth with gilt lettering. With a Foreword by Paul Scofield. This book is a full-length life story and is intended for a wider and more general circle of readers. It is not just an actor's reminiscences, although I was an actor and nothing else for many years. But being never in my heart entrirely committed to that life, I gave it up for good at a critical peak in my progress, just at the point when I believe I had discovered that incommunicable secret of relaxation in the art of acting which is every player's aim. Part II of this book is account of the things that happened to me after I left the stage in 1954. It tells of the secondary vocations and the many surprises I found waiting for me round the corners. Illustrated. 190 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).…
