Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Private faces in public places Are wiser and nicer Than public faces in private places. W.H. Auden, dedication to Stephen Spender, 1932 Stephen Spender wrote almost a million words of journal entries between his September Journal in 1939 and his death in 1995. In choosing from these voluminous journals for the new edition, the editors have tried to provide a picture of the various lives Spender brought together in autobiographical form. The earlier 1985 edition of the Journals was overseen by the author, and it privileged his thoughts about poetry - his own and other people's. The new edition includes the final ten years of Spender's life and provides access to the more intimate thoughts and feelings of the private man, but equally documents his life as a public intellectual who played a part in shaping the European literary and intellectual culture of his age. As we look back on the dramatic events of the twentieth century, we find that Spender was involved in many of them: the reconstruction of Germany and the construction of Europe (as Unesco's first Literary Councillor), the development of the cultural Cold War (as editor of Encounter), the founding of Israel, the anti-Vietnam movement in America. The Journals provide a personal version of sixty turbulent years of the twentieth century, hovering between diary, autobiography and history. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Jacket by Leonard Rosoman (illustrator). 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. Ex hospital library with stamps, bookplates and defects. Some edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners slightly rubbed, spine slightly spotted and faded. Not price clipped (15s), no personal inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall not a bad copy for ex library. 239pp. Turning from poetry to prose, Stephen Spender (1909-95), chooses the novel form to tell a story of lonely disenchantment. 'Engaged in Writing' depicts an international writers' conference which meets, full of high zeal, in Venice, to discuss international understanding. Representatives of every contemporary political, literary and philosophical school are present, with factions impotently trying to communicate and never achieving even surface understanding. 'The Fool and the Princess' tells the story of a self educated young Englishman, who during his service in a DP camp in Germany becomes infatuated with himself as an intellectual and further projects this infatuation to a female DP, with whom he compares his womanly and somewhat oppressed wife, to his wife's disadvantage.
