Dear Me is an autobiography by Peter Ustinov, published in 1977.{{cite book|author1=Don Lee Fred Nilsen|author2=Ralph Ellison|title=Humor in Twentieth-century British Literature: A Reference Guide|page=345|year=2000|publisher=Greenwood Press|isbn=978-0-313-29424-2}} The book's title is a play on words, since, in addition to "dear me" being a lament, it refers to the fact that the book is addressed to himself, as a conversation between Ustinov's "all too solid flesh" and "remorseless spirit."

A later edition published in 2011 by Random House, which had accquired the original publisher, William Heinemann Ltd, has been digitised by [https://books.google.com/books?id=idF5uUp-4ZcC Google Books].
