Noel Coward may have written all of his work before I was born but as this book shows his work is still relevent today. Noel Coward was a "master" of the theatre and his work discusses many issues that effect people today such as; drugs, homosexual relationships and alcohol abuse. The book takes a new look at Noel Coward as a relevent figure of the theatre today as well as yesterday. Any fan of Noel Coward should read it to recapture the reason they love Noel so much and new fans should read it to get to know the private life of the persona surrounding the English wit. All round the book covers a wide audience and encapsulates the readers attention and love of the one and only "master" of the theatre.
