Felicity Bryan was best known as one of Britain’s leading literary agents. She packed an extraordinary life with adventure, her many passions – literature, journalism, ballet and opera, art and gardening – and her deep friendships across the world. In the summer of 2019, she was diagnosed with terminal stomach cancer. True to character, she set about using her time well. Among her many activities during her final year, she wrote this memoir, which covers the period from when she left school in the early sixties to her marriage in 1981.
