Tracy Peacock Tynan came of age in London and New York during the 1950s and 60s. Her parents - the renowned theatre critic Kenneth Tynan and the author Elaine Dundy - threw lavish parties where style was essential and guests included some of the greatest Hollywood and literary legends: Laurence Olivier, Vivien Leigh, Orson Welles, Tennessee Williams, Gore Vidal and many more. 'In Wear and Tear', Tracy divulges the glamour, secrets and dark side of her parents' highly stylized world; the struggles she faced as she tried to take charge of her own life; and the happiness she found as a costume designer, writer, wife and mother.
