This succinct life of the bestselling author follows his Welsh childhood, his relationship with his domineering father Harald, his two marriages, and the death of his daughter Olivia from measles in 1962. It examines his wartime service as a fighter pilot and spy, probes the sources of the dark, subversive humour of his stories and, while broadly sympathetic, does not shy away from the troubling aspects of his personality.
