“The fashion I've acquired over the years is so sacred to me - from costumes to couture, high fashion to punk wear I've collected from my secret international hot spots. I keep everything in an enormous archive in Hollywood. The clothes are on mannequins, also on hangers and in boxes with a photo of each piece, and there's a Web site where I can go to look through everything. It's too big - I could never sort through it myself! But these garments tell the stories of my life.” YearsLooksI CanStoriesBigsSecretPiecesFashionClothesHollywoodHotSacredInternationalBoxesEnormousSpotsPunkSiteCostumesGarmentsStory Of My LifeArchivesCoutureHangersHigh Fashion Author:Lady Gaga
“But in reading Shakespeare and in reading about Edward de Vere, it's quite apparent that when you read these works that whoever penned this body of work was firstly well-travelled, secondly a multi-linguist and thirdly someone who had an innate knowledge of the inner workings and the mechanisms of a very secret and paranoid Elizabethan court. Edward de Vere ticks those three boxes and many more.

“Jonathan Coe's genial, likeable novel can only be described as a kind of lit-prog-rock concept album... Coe recreates the period with such loving accuracy that I frankly suspect him of having planted a secret microphone in the tin Oxford Mathematical Instruments box I carried around in my school days... As always with Jonathan Coe, the sheer intelligent good nature that suffuses his work makes it a pleasure to read.” KindSchoolPleasureSecretNovelRocksPeriodsConceptsIntelligentInstrumentsAlbumsBoxesMathematicalSuspectsSheerLitAccuracyOxfordMicrophonesTinGood NatureLikeableSchool Days Author:Peter Bradshaw
