Grant emigrated from Swaziland to London in 1982, with dreams of making it as an actor. Unexpectedly, he met and fell in love with a renowned dialect coach Joan Washington. Their relationship and marriage, navigating the highs and lows of Hollywood, parenthood, and loss, lasted almost forty years. When Joan died in 2021, her final challenge to him was to find a "pocketful of happiness in every day." This honest and frequently hilarious memoir is written in honor of that challenge-- Richard has faithfully kept a diary since childhood, and in these entries he shares raw detail of everything he has experienced: both the pain of losing his beloved wife, and the excitement of their life together, from the role that transformed his life overnight in Withnail and I to his thrilling Oscar Award nomination thirty years later for Can You Ever Forgive Me?"--|cProvided by publisher. 600 10 Grant, Richard E.,|d1957- 600 10 Grant, Richard E.,|d1957-|vDiaries. 600 10 Grant, Richard E.,|d1957-|xMarriage. 650 0 Motion picture actors and actresses|zGreat Britain |vBiography. 650 0 Motion picture actors and actresses|zGreat Britain |vDiaries. 650 0 Married people|zGreat Britain|vBiography. 650 0 Married people|zGreat Britain|vDiaries. 650 0 Lungs|xCancer|xPatients|xFamily relationships|vDiaries. 655 7 Diaries.|2lcgft 655 7 Autobiographies.|2lcgft 775 08 |iReproduction of (manifestation):|aGrant, Richard E., 1957-|tPocketful of happiness|dLondon : Gallery UK, 2022 |z9781398519473
