Ian Fleming’s Bond meets the lyricism of Rimbaud in Daniel Roy Connelly’s fast-paced, genre-defying debut. ‘Extravagant Stranger’ is the compelling memoir of a former diplomat, theatre director, Shakespeare scholar and conscience-stricken father. Laced with international intrigue and absurd moments of well-aimed self-scrutiny, here is a book – like the life it relates – truly without comparison.
