Getting on ...: Reflections on Life

2017 | Biography

Charming, handsome, debonair, all-action and - unbelievably - Getting On. In this warm and engaging book, Roger Moore reflects on life and aging as he reaches the tender age of ninety. Sir Roger Moore turns ninety in October 2017 and in Getting On . he looks back on life, forward at life - and gives it a 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, of family and friends he has lost. Featuring his own line illustrations, this book sees Sir Roger at his most open and forthright as he reaches another milestone birthday. 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.

However, it's by no means all doom and gloom, as he shares the joys he experiences every day and the tiny triumphs that life brings at the most unexpected times.
