Celebrating Fifty Years of Picador Books' I was born in 1939. The other big event of that year was the outbreak of the Second World War, but for the moment, that did not affect me. ' Collected here for the first time are the first three volumes of Clive James' s million-copy selling autobiographical series: Unreliable Memoirs, Falling Towards England, and May Week Was In June. In typically hilarious and self-effacing style, James proves a hugely entertaining and erudite guide to his own remarkable life, with these volumes detailing James' s childhood adventures in the suburbs of post-war Sydney, his excited arrival in London as a young man and aspiring poet, and the campus life at Cambridge that led to him falling in love (often) and getting married (once). This is one the most beloved and acclaimed series of memoirs of all time, from a true national treasure.
Clive James is the author of more than thirty books. As well as his four volumes of autobiography, Unreliable Memoirs, Falling Towards England, May Week was in June and North face of Soho, he has published collections of literary and television criticism, essays, travel writing, verse and novels. As a television performer he has appeared regularly for both the BBC and ITV, most notably as writer and presenter of the Postcard series of travel documentaries. He helped to found the independent telvevision production company Watchmaker and the Internet enterprise Welcome Stranger, one of whose offshoots is a multmedia personal wesbite, www. clivejames. com. In 1992 he was made a Member of the Order of Australia and in 2003 he was awarded the Philip Hodgins memorial medal for literature. His latest book is Cultural Amnesia: Notes in the Margin of My Time published in April 2007.
