Susannah Constantine in the hottest memoir of the year

and brilliant. With comedy and candour, she bares her soul . . .
Magnificent' SUNDAY MAIL 'There is a lot we can't mention on this
show - you have to buy the book to find out what we mean' STEVE
WRIGHT, BBC RADIO 2 __________ If you think you know Susannah
Constantine you may be surprised to learn the truth. That she made
her name as a 'style guru' from What Not to Wear is actually the
least interesting thing about her. Hers is a tale full to the brim
with extraordinary anecdotes. From lavatory dramas with Princess
Margaret, to behind-the-scenes power struggles between Thatcher and
the Queen at Balmoral and eye-opening sex-club etiquette with pop
royalty - her social landscape has been nothing, if not varied. But
appearances are deceptive and beneath it all, life had a darker
side: her mother's bipolar disorder, her father's inability to cope
and her own subsequent alcoholism. Somehow she had to forge her own
life, away from the expectations of others. Told with gobsmacking
honesty and great dollops of humour, Ready For Absolutely Nothing
is essential reading for anyone who loves a good memoir but
secretly just wants to read the naughty bits. __________
