About This Item

London, United Kingdom: Hodder & Stoughton Ltd. Fine/Near Fine. 2003. First Edition. 10th Impression. Cloth. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall 0340826118 Hardback Price clipped. In this first major biography since Milligan's death in February 2002, acclaimed biographer Humphrey Carpenter draws more fully than ever before on Spike's writings and those closest to him to chart the life of this most complex man. He uncovers a personality which could be as difficult, contradictory and misanthropic as it was passionate, sensitive and inspired. The picture which emerges is seldom straightforward, but Carpenter has created a spell-binding portrait of this tortured genius which will be required reading for anyone who cares about the history of comedy, as well as for Milligan devotees the world over. Illustrated. 435 pp. .
