The Collection


Fiction and Poetry
During the 1970s and the early 1980s Peter Ackroyd wrote countless book reviews and articles for the Spectator, on literature, film and a number of social and cultural issues. The Collection offers a selection of these incisive and entertaining pieces which established Ackroyd's reputation as a writer.Since 1986 Ackroyd has been chief book reviewer for The Times, and in this capacity he has reviewed some of the most important biographies and novels published over the last fifteen years. A selection of his Times reviews are included here. These reviews, and his articles for the Sunday Times, display his characteristic attitudes to literature and art. They also throw interesting lights on his own work as a prize-winning novelist and biographer. The Collection also contains a number of Ackroyd's interesting and provocative lectures on 'The Englishness of English literature', 'London Luminaries and Cockney Visionaries', 'William Blake' and 'The Nature of Time'. In addition, several essays on subjects such as the art of biography, contemporary painters such as Frank Auerbach and Ackroyd's own writing have been included. Finally, three of Ackroyd's short stories have been reproduced, one of which was his first published work of fiction.

Magnify Dorothy
Dorothy

Dorothy


Theatre Ballet and Film
There is much humour in the book, of course, but there is also reflection on the sources of that humour: a life in the footlights but also in the shadows. Dorothy Paul presents a selection of the many parts she has played, on stage and off; her story is touching, revealing and, ultimately, a celebration of a great talent.She has been called a national treasure and has had packed audiences choking with laughter wherever she has travelled with her one-woman shows. Now Dorothy Paul takes to the page with the story of her childhood in Dennistoun, her working life from the days with Kraft Cheese to the triumph of The Steamie ('she's tough and sexy - a tenement goddess with a tongue that could shift rust') her marriage and her roller-coaster stage career. Dorothy's nostalgia is sharply observed and never sentimental. As a reviewer of her show remarked, 'what she sends up, she never puts down'. The vivid characters familiar from her shows - ingenious father, long-suffering mother, the tribe of aunts and at least two criminal teachers - are joined here by Variety stars and a galaxy of actors, so that the book is not only an autobiography of Dorothy Paul but also a chapter in the history of the Scottish stage and of the early days of Scottish Television.
