A Fine tight copy in a Near Fine unclipped dust jacket with a lightly sunned spine. Connolly spent his life immersed in literature and the arts and moved among the giants of modernism--James Joyce, T.S. Eliot, Huxley, Hemingway, Gide and Ezra Pound. He was the founder of Horizon magazine and one of the foremost editors and critics of his time. This collection features thirty of his essays broken into three sections: Travel, Life and Literature, and Satires and Parodies.
