Description
SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
'I welcome you with open arms to My Book of Treasures.' Joanna Lumley
Over the years, Joanna Lumley has kept private notebooks filled with favourite writings, thoughts and quotes that have moved, amused or delighted her. Now, for the first time, she opens her Book of Treasures to share them with readers.
This joyful, escapist collection brings together the lines of her favourite authors—from Shakespeare to Emily Dickinson—alongside pearls of wisdom, nuggets of trivia and miscellanea, all interspersed with Joanna's own warm and witty narration. The wistful keeps company with the acerbic; the sincere slips in besides the absurd. The result is a jewel box of pure pleasure and frequently, gloriously funny: a book to keep coming back to and a journey inside the mind of one of the most loved and entertaining figures of our time.

About the Author
Joanna Lumley was born in Kashmir and educated in Malaysia and Sussex. She has spent much of her life in books, reading them night and day, and sometimes even writing them. Reading is the prop and mainstay of her life, but she has wrenched herself away to act in theatre, films and television, criss-crossing the globe with television documentaries and lending her voice to as many deserving causes as she can.
Dazzled by the wit and wisdom of others, she cuts out and keeps treasured pieces she wishes she had written herself. She is married to the conductor Stephen Barlow who reads all the time: theirs is a quiet household.Also by Joanna Lumley
