Book description
The Letters of Kenneth Tynan- drama critic, talent snob, intellectual
dandy, inveterate campaigner - provide a record of a soul: written
between the ages of 11 and 53, they not only chart the extraordinary
parabola of his career but show the constancy of his quest for grace,
style and effortless wit. Kathleen Tynan, novelist, journalist and
screenwriter, was the author of
The Summer Aeroplane
and Agatha.
Her biography of her husband, The Life of Kenneth Tynan,
was published to great acclaim in 1987. Kathleen Tynan died in 1995.
