Joanna Lumley writes memoir, travel books and light autobiographical collections drawn from acting, broadcasting and journeys around the world. No Room for Secrets uses rooms in an imagined house to organise memories of childhood, modelling, acting, family and friendships rather than following a strict chronology. Absolutely gathers anecdotes from her career and public life, while books accompanying travel series follow journeys through countries, landscapes and railway routes with an emphasis on people encountered along the way. Lumley's prose is conversational, humorous and anecdotal, closer to spoken storytelling than formal autobiography. Her work fits celebrity memoir, television autobiography and accessible travel writing, particularly for readers interested in British entertainment and personality-led journeys. Read more Less
