But Ann Leslie's life is every bit as remarkable as her career. A daughter of the Raj she was born in India and the strongest influence on her early life was an illiterate Pashtun bearer who saved her life during Partition. Her mother a great beauty was indifferent to her eldest daughter and she was sent to the first of a series of boarding-schools aged just four eventually winning a scholarship to Oxford. After graduating she began her career at the Manchester office of the Daily Express where the news editor took an instant dislike to her - she was a southerner educated and worst of all female. Despite his best efforts she was soon given her own column. Then after a stint covering show business she was appointed Foreign Correspondent of the Daily Mail an association that endures today almost forty years later and one which finally allowed her real talent to shine through. Killing My Own Snakes is a witty incident-filled account of an extraordinary life a fascinating self-portrait of one the most influential journalists of our time. . Language: English
