Gillian Lynne's Book of Particular Cats (en Inglés) - Gillian Lynne;Peter Land

Celebrating the 100th anniversary of the pioneering choreographer and director, Dame Gillian Lynne's memoir is the story of a life well-lived.

Admired as the creator of the most influential performances of the last century, Gillian Lynne's memoir explores the personal, star-studded stories which defined her extraordinary career.

Drawing inspiration from T. S. Eliot's timeless Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats alongside the feline characters of the world-renowned musical, Cats, Gillian Lynne reflects on the people who shaped her life and work. From Sophia Loren and Margot Fonteyn to Judi Dench and Andrew Lloyd Webber, Gillian rubbed shoulders, quite literally, with stars of stage and screen. With wit, warmth and insight, these talented individuals appear front and centre amongst her vivid, beautifully written memories.

Collated by her husband, the actor Peter Land, Gillian Lynne's Book of Particular Cats weaves stories of hard-work, passion and love to create a playful and inspiring portrait of a life spent in dance, theatre and artistry.

This is the much-anticipated second part of Dame Gillian Lynne's autobiography, following her acclaimed memoir A Dancer in Wartime (Chatto & Windus).
