Judging by speed of reading them, of three auto-biographies I have been reading recently the ranking has been:
1. Paddy Ashdown A Fortunate Life
2. Michael Parkinson Parky: My Autobiography (rather egotistical (but then again I suppose most auto-biographies are egotistical by definition) but a good read nonetheless)
3. Barack Obama Dreams from my father (the latter is currently on hold two-thirds of the way through).
Currently I am reading an interesting biography which has spurred this mini-quiz:
What is connection between the film of Graham Greene's The Third Man (which starred Orson Welles) and the novel A Frenchman's Creek?
Anyone?
Answer here.
