A propos du livre

Revue de presse

uproarious and unflinching (Mail on Sunday)

a gold standard celebrity who makes the modern sort look cheap (The Times)

To read Caine is to be in the company of an amiable, sentimental man who has achieved great success - and happiness - without appearing to be in the least smug. (Daily Mail, John Preston)

A truly incredible life story. (The Sun)

you can hear his distinctive voice throughout, his fans will enjoy the ride. (Choice)

most memorable... This follow-up might have seemed over-indulgent were it not for his self-deprecating vignettes, told in a voice as distinctive as his spoken one, that led to critical comparisons with David Niven's classic, The Moon's a Balloon. (Independent)

Michael Caine fans will love his 'blow the bloody doors off' autobiography. (Fabulous)

Michael Caine's second work of memoir brims with his gift for genial anecdote, but this time there's a hint of sadness as he looks back (Sunday Times)

A jolly amble from the Elephant & Castle to international stardom...there's plenty of satisfying name-dropping from a gold-standard celebrity who makes the modern sort look cheap. (Saturdays Times, Christmas Round-Up)

the peeks behind the silver screen make the book light up (New Statesman)
