Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

‘We sailed for two or three hours, and he fell into the silence of concentration and respect for the wind and sea that only very experienced sailors seem to display when at the helm. This is the kind of focus that wins races, but also – I imagine – the degree of concentration that allows new fiction to develop and grow with powerful roots over a period of time.’Pete Townshend

Book Description: Faber and Faber Ltd. Book Condition: New. pp. 400 The first biography of Nobel Prize-winning novelist William Golding by celebrated writer and critic, John Carey. In 1953, William Golding was a provincial schoolteacher, writing books in his breaks, lunch hours and holidays. His work had been rejected by every publisher he sent it to - until an editor at Faber pulled his manuscript off the rejection pile. This was to become Lord of the Flies, a book that would sell in its millions and bring Golding worldwide recognition. Drawing almost entirely on materials that have never before been made public, John Carey sheds new light on Golding. Thr. Bookseller Inventory # 7357429
