As a writer who finds inspiration with Hemingway in Paris and Virginia Woolf in London, as a spy recruited by Ian Fleming and betrayed in the war, and as an art-dealer in '60s New York, Logan mixes with the men and women who shape his times. But as a son, friend, lover and husband, he makes the same mistakes we all do in our search for happiness. Here, then, is the story of a life lived to the full - and a journey deep into a very human heart.</p><p><b>'One of the things this book does so brilliantly, is it so authentically recreates historical characters' Ben Miller, on BBC 2's<i> Between The Covers</i></b></p><p>____________________________<br><b><br>'Astonishing, touching, extremely funny.
