The definitive account, in his own words, of one of the most popular
figures in British theatre.
The second and concluding volume of Noël Coward's legendary
autobiography includes _Future Indefinite_ and the unfinished _Past
Unconditional_. With his trademark wit, Coward delivers anecdotes
about his travels in South America, Hollywood encounters with an array
of contemporary stars and directors, and his later theatrical
successes, including the Broadway triumph of _Design For Living_. The
showbiz glamour aside, we also encounter a middle-aged man coming to
terms with a world in disarray; his confused feelings towards the war
and his own part in it exposing a more serious and thoughtful side to
a performer and raconteur more usually associated with frivolity.
Future Indefinite sees Coward transformed from a 'brazen odious little
prodigy' into one of the most exuberant characters in British
theatrical history.
