What did Peter Sellers do on the last day of his life? Why were some of his marriages unsuccessful and painful? What was really his relationship with his children? Above all, whence sprang the genius for comedy that made him a great and memorable star? Aided by hiterto highly confidential information and candid revelations by Lynne Fredericks, Seller’s widow and the last of his four wives, Alexander Walker has compiled an incisive portrait of the complex and contradictory Peter Sellers – his mother dominated youth; his impulsive romances (real and imaginary) his tortured genius and reckless behaviour. With black and white photographs.
