In this enchanting memoir, Terence Stamp takes listeners with him on his unlikely journey from prewar London's East End, where his birth heralded the unification of two Cockney clans, to the beginnings of the stardom that would transform his life.

A born storyteller, Terence looks back on his life with humor and affection for everyone from his beloved mother-whose unswerving conviction that he was special instilled in Terence a belief that his life would be different-to the teacher who informed him that he "would make a good manager at Woolworth's."
