Personal Record, 1920-1972

Résumé du livre

"... Recalls a lifetime of literary labors and literary friendships and re-creates the political upheavals to which he was witness. The result is a feast of encounters though half a century: Virginia and Leonard Woolf, Roger Fry, Desmond McCarthy, Arthur Waley, Ernest Hemingway, Augustus John, Dylan Thomas, the Powys brothers, Bertrand Russell ... Equally absorbing is Brenan's utterly personal, first-hand account of the early months of the Spanish Civil War "--Book jacket.
