Peter Fleming was a famous English traveler, explorer and adventurer, whose non-fiction books were hugely successful. My father owned signed copies of all of them — he and Peter Fleming had become acquainted over some detail of set design at the Korda film studio in Shepperton — and I had read each of them with breathless adolescent excitement.

I recognize that I had a good deal of good luck...I refuse to accept the view...My coldest days, my darkest days, ain't no sun out...The original 'About Last Night' was phenomenal...Honesty is the fastest way to prevent a mistake...But the eyes are blind...
