Clement Freud who died suddenly in April 2009 was a man of many parts. His life embraced a variety of careers including TV chef gambler owner of a night club & several racehorses radio broadcaster adventurer &
- not least
- Member of Parliament. Yet as his son Matthew declared at his funeral it was Freuds writing that brought us closest to the man. In addition to several books
- notably the childrens book Grimble" (1968) " Freud on Food" (1978) " The Book of Hangovers" (1981) & a volume of autobiography " Freud Ego" (2001)
- he wrote on a vast range of subjects for newspapers & magazines including the " Observer" " Sun" " Financial Times" " Sporting Life" " Daily Mail" " Tatler" " Guardian" " New Yorker" & " Racing Post". "A Feast of Freud" presents a generous helping of Clement Freuds best & most humorous writing on a broad sweep of topics including his consuming passions of food sport politics & the absurdity of the human condition reflecting his extraordinarily varied life through the prism of his distinctive deadpan humour. From the pen of the man who once joked of being out-grandfathered by the younger Winston Churchill comes this richly stocked volume that every Freud fan no matter in which of his many lives they encountered him will treasure."
