Steven Berkoff has been variously described as exciting, controversial, thrilling, egocentric, electric, dynamic and difficult. A gifted playwright. a charismatic stage performer, an inventive director and a screen actor - who is Steven Berkoff? Of Russian extraction, born in the East End and schooled in Hackney, he has become one of the foremost innovators in British theatre since bursting upon the scene with Metamorphosis in 1969. A childhood spent ranging freely between London and New York, teenage years spent going 'up West', working as a waiter on a cruise ship, an unhappy stint as a salesman in London, Iceland and Germany (gambling at the same tables in Wiesbaden as Dostoievsky), then on to drama school, a course of mime with Jaques Le Coq in Paris and early days in weekly rep in the early sixties, The dust jacket has light general wear with some small stains spots. The book has had the inside front free page roughly removed but the book remains tight and bright.
