A LOVE LETTER TO 67 YEARS OF ACTING ON STAGE A witty, insightful journey through the plays and tales of our beloved Shakespeare ‘Wonderfully inspiring. A delightful spell in the company of one of our greatest actresses’ Daily Mail, Books of the Year ‘Gloriously entertaining. Reading it feels like a chat with an old friend’ Observer ‘A magical love letter to Shakespeare’ Kenneth Branagh ---- For the very first time, Judi Dench opens up about every Shakespearean role she has played in her seven-decade career, from Lady Macbeth and Titania to Ophelia and Cleopatra. Here, she reveals her behind the scenes secrets; inviting us to share in her triumphs, disasters, and backstage shenanigans, all brightened by her mischievous sense of humour and striking honesty.

An unstoppable stream of anecdotes, recollections and asides' Telegraph ‘Companionable and compelling, mischievous and convivial – it genuinely feels like you’re sitting at her kitchen table with Judi Dench’ Guardian ‘Gorgeous’ Literary Review ‘A wonderful mixture of appreciation and anecdote’ Financial Times, Books of the Year Instant Sunday Times bestseller, November 2023
