Andrew Davies: A Life in Scripts

Andrew Davies, the undisputed maestro of literary adaptation finally turns his razor-sharp pen on the most challenging subject of all: himself.

He has written his way into British cultural history, from Pride and Prejudice to House of Cards, Bleak House to Bridget Jones.

But his own life story is every bit as compelling and chaotic as the characters he’s brought to life.

An Unsuitable Boy is a memoir that weaves together wit, irreverence and vulnerability to reflect on a life of writing, loving, adapting, collaborating and surviving.

In conversation with Fiona Lindsay.

There will be a book signing after this event.
