Winner of the Society for Theatre Research Book Prize 2020 Vivien Leigh was perhaps the most iconic actress of the twentieth century. As Scarlett O'Hara and Blanche Du Bois she took on some of the most pivotal roles in cinema history. Yet she was also a talented theatre actress with West End and Broadway plaudits to her name. In this ground-breaking new biography, Alan Strachan provides a completely new full-life portrait of Leigh, covering both her professional and personal life. Using previously unseen sources from her archive, recently acquired by the V&A, he sheds new light on her fractious relationship with Laurence Olivier, based on their letters and diaries, as well as on the bipolar disorder which so affected her later life and work. Revealing new aspects of her early life as well as providing glimpses behind-the-scenes of the filming of Gone with the Wind and A Streetcar Named Desire, this book provides the essential and comprehensive life-story of one of the twentieth century's greatest actresses.

We all think we know what love is. We know it from the songs, romantic comedies and stories that we have been told since childhood. But what if love is not what we have been taught to believe? How can we transcend the idea of love that has been instilled in us, and how can we overcome the habits of a lifetime and discover a pure, unconditional love? Don Miguel Ruiz and Barbara Emrys show us that it is possible to love others and ourselves much more authentically and generously. One by one, Don pulls back the veils that prevent us from glimpsing the true nature of love so that we can transcend the idea that has been programmed into us. Through the transformative power of awareness and attention, we will learn to see beyond our stories about love—those that we are told, but also those that we tell ourselves—so that we can change the way we think and react. Once you set the illusions aside, you can see yourself as pure energy and also decide where to direct that energy. And when the energy of love rules your existence, amazing transformations are possible in every moment...

All my masks is a collection of poems, written between 2003 and early 2011, mostly on the themes of unrequited love, dreams, mortality, regret, and other such sad subjects. However, some lighter material is also included, generally written either in response to some trivial happening, such as losing a favourite glove, or else as an outpouring of an over-active imagination. The poems appear, roughly speaking, in reverse chronological order.
