Author: Geoff DeaneMemoirsPublished on 13th June 2024 by Muswell Press in the United Kingdom.Paperback / softback | 280 pages 198mm x 129mm | 0g This is the tale of life lived larg e, a collection of uproarious and often moving stories spanning 60 years, from Geoff s youth as a clothes obsessed Jewish suedehead, hanging out in Tottenham dancehalls, via straight Bowie Boy frequenting London s gay clubs, gender confusion in Manhattan s Studio 54, and on to huge career success as a screenwriter. With a cast ranging from local oddballs to international celebrities, Geoff Deane s unique take on the world is only matched by his extraordinary use of language which combines Cockney rhyming slang with Yiddish and a smattering of Polari.
