A smart first edition of this collection of ideas from important British writers of the twentieth century. First edition. A deep exploration into the practice of writing between three important writers of the twentieth century. Discussing their role in displaying the inconvenience of human nature while presenting an individual and private point of view, enlarging the readers' knowledge of themselves. With commentary from Elizabeth Bowen, an Irish-British novelist and short story writer, Henry Graham Greene, an English writer and journalist, and Sir Victor Sawdon Pritchett, a British writer and literary critic. In the original paper covered boards. Externally, smart with light wear and minor chipping to the extremities. Sunning to the spine with the odd small mark to the boards. A small closed tear to the tail of the spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright and clean with minor age toning to the endpapers. Very Good. Seller Inventory # 914T29
