As she sits for hours by the bedside of her father, comatose following massive strokes, Felicity Kendal starts to tell him the story of her extraordinary childhood. It is an act of absolution and reconciliation. As she moves hauntingly between the present and the past, Felicity recaptures the complexity and colour of her relationship with her volatile father, with her talented and beautiful mother Laura, and with her sister Jennifer whose tragically early death was to shake the family to its foundations. White Cargo is a deeply, sometimes painfully, honest memoir by one of the most outstanding actresses of our generation. It is also a richly entertaining and resonant evocation of the moments in our lives when past and present meet, moments of forgiveness and understanding, moments of truth.
