The author of the award-winning Matisse: A Life now gives us the long-awaited, definitive biography of literary master Anthony Powell - the critic, editor, and novelist known as ´´the English Proust´´ - that, at the same time, takes us deep into 20th-century London literary life.... The author of the award-winning, two-volume Matisse: A Life now gives us the long-awaited, definitive biography of literary master Anthony Powell - the critic, editor, and novelist known as ´´the English Proust´´ - that, at the same time, takes us deep into 20th-century London literary life.Anthony Powell (1905-2000), best known for his 12-volume comic masterpiece A Dance to the Music of Time, was also the author of 16 earlier novels, plays, and biographies, five memoirs, and three volumes of journals. He was a prolific literary critic and book reviewer. Between the two world wars, before making his name, he kept company with rowdy, hard-up writers and painters - and painters´ models - in the London where Augustus John and Wyndham Lewis loomed large. He counted Evelyn Waugh and Henry Green among his lifelong friends, and his circle included the Sitwells, Graham Greene, George Orwell, Philip Larkin, and Kingsley Amis, among many others. Now, drawing on his letters, diaries, and interviews, Hilary Spurling - herself a longtime friend of Powell´s - has written a fresh and masterful portrait of the man, his work, and his time. Insightful, poignant, and cinematic in scope, this biography is as much a brilliant tapestry of a seminal moment in London´s literary life as it is a revelation of an iconic literary figure. 1.

The author of the award-winning, two-volume Matisse: A Life, now gives us the long-awaited, definitive biography of literary master, Anthony Powell--the critic, editor and novelist known as "the English Proust"-- that, at the same time, takes us deep into twentieth century London literary life. Anthony Powell (1905-2000), best known for his twelve volume comic masterpiece, Dance to the Music of Time, was also the author of sixteen earlier novels, plays, and biographies, five memoirs, and three volumes of journals. He was a prolific literary critic and book reviewer. Between the two world wars, before making his name, he kept company with rowdy, hard-up writers and painters--and painter's models--in the London where Augustus John and Wyndham Lewis loomed large. He counted Evelyn Waugh and Henry Green among his life-long friends, and his circle included the Sitwells, Graham Greene, George Orwell, Philip Larkin, and Kingsley Amis, among many others. Now, drawing on his letters, diaries, and interviews, Hilary Spurling--herself a long-time friend of Powell's-- has written a fresh and masterful portrait of the man, his work, and his time.

Biography & Autobiography, Lady Diana Cooper's autobiography covers the years from her earliest childhood (as Lady Diana Manners, youngest daughter of the eighth Duke of Rutland) to retirement at Chantilly and the death of her husband Duff Cooper, first Viscount Norwich, politician, writer and, at the end of the Second World War, British Ambassador in Paris. The three books which make up this single volume were published in 1958-60 and met with outstanding critical and public success. Reviewing the first of them, Evelyn Waugh wrote: 'This is not to be judged merely as the memoirs of an exceptionally brilliant social figure, but as a work of art. By that standard it has real distinction - poetic, idiosyncratic, poignant, funny, unflagging, scintillating, simple, stylish; not the book of the season, or of the bedside table; a book for the library, to be read and reread and loved for a lifetime'. eBook.
