Written while her father lay dying, this autobiography is also a tribute to this extraordinary man who dedicated his life to touring India with his theatre company. Kendall's childhood is fascinating, not only for its sense of time and place but also for the family warmth and energy that kept everyone going in situations of hilarious if hair-raising precariousness. I found it an extremely touching book and unexpectedly well-written.
