The Impatient Pen is an anthology of writing from throughout Nicky Haslam's career. His career, as such, is that of an interior designer or decorator but . . . Haslam's other recognised career has been that of being in the right place at the right time, of being able to offer a social commentary on social history with characteristic erudition, wit and insight.The writing enclosed includes a chapter on princesses and following that one on Park Avenue princesses. A piece on high society followed by a piece on fish and chips.
A.N. Wilson writes in his introduction that "Nicky loves puns, jokes and gossip, but he is not malicious. He reflects on grand and famous people but he is not a snob. He finds class much too funny to take it withe the seriousness that snobbery demands. He moves in the world, and loves the people he meets there, seeing the good in Princess Margaret, Norman Hartnell, Charlie Maclean, and bringing them to life for us."
