Description
The Light's on at Signpost is a collection of film-world reminiscences and trenchant thoughts from George MacDonald Fraser, author of the popular Flashman novels. Over thirty years as a screenwriter, he worked with some of Hollywood's biggest names, including Steve McQueen and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Fraser shares his recollections of those encounters, offering a fascinating glimpse behind the scenes. However, he is not afraid to speak his mind on contemporary issues, such as New Labour and the state of Britain under Tony Blair's leadership. His candid views have sparked controversy among some critics, but also resonated with many readers.
This book provides a unique insight into Fraser's life and career, and offers a thought-provoking perspective on the entertainment industry and British politics in the late 20th century.
