Description

A unique testimony to the most recognizable and enduring marriage in modern literature. 'I saw Harry from a fuller room, but it was lunchtime, and we didn't speak.' When Antonia Fraser met Harold Pinter, she was a renowned biographer, and he was Britain's leading playwright. Both were already married – Pinter to actress Vivien Merchant and Fraser to politician Hugh Fraser – but their union seemed inevitable from the moment they met: 'I would have found you somehow,' Pinter told Fraser. Their relationship flourished until Pinter's death on December 24, 2008, and it was a source of joy and inspiration until the end. Fraser used her diaries and personal memories to narrate a poignant love story. It is also a memoir of the collaboration between two of literature's greatest talents, with fascinating glimpses into their creativity and their impressive circle of friends from the literary, political, and theatrical worlds.
