Learning to Drink and What Came After

By Geraldine Norman

Learning to Drink and What Came After is an irreverent take on a life that has been lived across the pages of The Times, within the darkly glamorous haunts of Soho and behind the scenes at The Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg.

Geradine's remarkable life has enjoyed a ringside seat in the drinking dens of Soho alongside artists and criminals, the last days (and nights) of 1970s Fleet Street, the lofty world of the Mayfair auction houses and the dangerous glamour of post-glasnost Saint Petersburg.
