Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book follows the life and relationships of Horace Jewdwine, an Oxford scholar who discovers an exceptional young poet, Savage Keith Rickman, in a bookshop. Savage Rickman is a Cockney, who lives and breathes poetry, particularly the neo-classic drama and the art of writing in classic literary forms, while living a somewhat bohemian existence in London during the 1890s. The author explores Jewdwine's struggle to reconcile his own refined tastes and conventional lifestyle with his desire to support and nurture Rickman's genius. It is a story of the two men's connection and friendship, which at times is tested by Rickman's unconventional personality and lifestyle choices. It highlights the tensions between different artistic movements and the challenges of being an artist in a fast-changing world.
