Recensione:

Adie has reinvented herself as a writer with such a delightful, light touch, such an unexpected eye for the absurd, that her memoir at times bears comparison with Evelyn Waugh...delicious vignettes. Adie shows a striking ability to convey in a few pages an era, a war or a country. She is as classy an act on the page as she is on the screen (Independent)

The Kindness of Strangers is a rattling good read (Martin Bell, The Times)

The Kindness of Strangers is a rollicking good read - witty, well written and packed with fascinating stories (Daily Telegraph)

Adie's autobiography is tireless and entertaining (Observer)

An inspirational book for any person wondering what it takes to make it. An exceptional account of a remarkable woman (Michael Parkinson)
