Hardback. Zustand: Good. When Sir Alec Guinness died in August 2000 at the age of 86, he left behind two exercise books filled with entries in his small, beautiful handwriting, together with a typed-up Introduction that suggests he planned to have the books published or broadcast in some way. Together they make up this commonplace book. The entries include passages from favourite poems and plays, theatrical anecdotes, stories overheard on the street, and the occasional short musing or reminiscence on a subject that has simply taken his fancy. Inevitably certain writers recur: Shakespeare, of course, the subject of a lifetime's study and love. Pepys, Kipling, R.S. Thomas and religious writers like Cardinal Newman and Simone Well. But here too are Woody Allen and John Updike, e.e. cummings and Barry Humphries. And some acerbic comments on certain contemporary television stars.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. A New York Times Notable Book from an Oscar award-winning icon.   These journal entries are comprised of Sir Alec Guinness?s observations on Britain during the tumultuous times of Princess Diana?s death and the election of Tony Blair, and comments on his quintessentially English country life with his wife. Written from the summer of 1996 through 1998, A Positively Final Appearance is a follow-up to the best-selling My Name Escapes Me. Guinness offers frank (and surprising) reflections on the effects of appearing in the Star Wars films, and both hilarious and poignant memories of such well-known performers as Humphrey Bogart and Noel Coward. This delightful, humorous journal is a wonderful legacy from a beloved actor.   ?Sly, witty, elegant . . . buoyant, vivid, and brave.??The New York Times Book Review   ?Simply, deliciously funny.??The Washington Post   ?Reading Guinness is like finally sitting down and soaking in the wisdom of the grandparent you never seem to have time for. And we may never see the likes of him again.??Chicago Sun-Times.…
