Despite the name, Beverley Nichols is male, and this is what he refers to as his autobiography, rather audaciously penned at the age of 25. He knows that it is outrageous to write an autobiography so young; he justifies it on the grounds that youth is a time of enthusiasm, and middle age a time of boredom. Better to write about the things he has seen while they still excite him.

This was the book that put Nichols on the map - who but he has the temerity to write his autobiography at 25?
He only got better as he continued to write.
