Synopsis:

The British author and actor shares his own entertaining gay coming-of-age story, from his tumultuous youth, to the teenage love affair with a fellow schoolboy that had a profound impact on his life, to the attempted suicide, deliquency, and madness that followed. 20,000 first printing.

About the Author: Stephen Fry no longer steals, cheats or lies nearly as much as he used to. He still talks too much, and he still has an annoying flop of schoolboy hair that seventeen of London's most expensive and absurd hairdressers have been able to do nothing about.

Fry has written three novels--The Liar, The Hippopotamus and Making History--and played Peter in the film Peter's Friends, Wilde in the film Wilde, Jeeves in the television series Jeeves & Wooster, and (a closely guarded show-business secret, this) Laurie in the TV series A Bit of Fry and Laurie.
        
Much of his past life is contained between the covers of the book you are now holding; much of his present life is spent trying to be good. He rarely succeeds, yet still he tries. He divides his time between New York and his English homes in London and Norfolk.
