In this warm and engaging book, the late, great Sir Roger Moore reflects on life and ageing.Delivered, along with his own hand-drawn sketches, to his publisher shortly before he passed away, in À Bientôt, Roger looks back on his life - and gives it his trademark sideways glance, too. Nostalgic, funny, charming and, most importantly, very human, his reflections on age and ageing encompass all aspects of this universal experience, from reminiscences on childhood and 'what might have been'; keeping abreast of the ever-changing times; senior moments, memory and getting to grips with technology; the joys - and frustrations - of travel; work and play. Along with these he tells of the intense happiness - and some equally intense sadnesses - of family life.Featuring his own sketches throughout, this book sees Roger at his most open and forthright. The true stories and situations he shares in this warm and intimate book reveal a 'Bond Unbound', the human being inside the action-adventure character that made him so famous the world over. Always upbeat and - as ever - endearingly self-effacing and unpretentious, in À bientôt he shares the joys he experienced every day along with the tiny triumphs that life brings to us all at the most unexpected times.

Review A book filled with wisdom, warmth and witty humour, written by one of our modern legends. Using a remarkably readable language and never forgetting his gentlemanly manners, Sir Roger Moore shares hilarious, memorable and touching moments from his life, writing in subjects suh as wartime memories, the joys of traveling, technical development and growing older. It's a quick read and the social commentary will surprise some, while most readers will find it very funny. Some of the references and jokes work better on English and possibly American readers, though, so it might not be equally accessible to all readers. ( )
