Dame Judi Dench, whose illustrious career spans theater, film, and television, reflects intelligently and with occasional humor on her roles and accomplishments and provides anecdotes about her costars. But this is not a gossipy memoir, and she delves only rarely into her personal life. Fellow actress and close friend Samantha Bond is an excellent reader; in fact, she sounds a lot like Dench herself, who narrates the preface. Her discussion of acting techniques will be invaluable to anyone aspiring to master the craft. Recommended for Dench fans as well as for theater students and enthusiasts. ["A delightful visit with a rare actress," read the review of the New York Times best-selling St. Martin's hc, LJ 1/11.—Ed.]—Phillip Oliver, Univ. of North Alabama Lib., Florence
