    Summary: 
    "One breezy afternoon, 148 tattered, anonymous diaries were found in a skip. They were filled with urgent handwriting. "Hope these books aren't blown up before peope can read them. They have immoral value." For the next five years, this astonishing, intimate five-million-word diary took over Alexander Master's life. Who was the mysterious author of these books, which began in 1952 and ended half a century later? What was the "grand passion" that had convulsed the writer's life? Who was "E" the forbidden and shocking lover? And why the focus on cauliflowers, blood and Michael Barrymore?" --Back cover
