Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Last Post has a double life; it both sounds for the gallant fallen and recalls what spurred freelance journalists, in all those yesterdays before e-mail, to get their copy in the pillar-box by deadline time. Frederic Raphael's compendium, written in the lively equivalent of the French epistolary second person singular, is a rare mixture of loud salutes, occasional raspberries and affectionate farewells.Its intimacy delivers frankness that formal biography, however plumped with proper sources, seldom achieves.

A book of celebrity letters from the award-winning screenwriter Frederic Raphael. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
