The pages are browned as a consequence of the paper used in the production. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Powell's first volume of journals. Introduction by his wife, Lady Violet Powell. As his writing career came to a close Powell, who died in March, 2000, began to keep journals of his daily life and reminiscences of friends, colleagues and a few foes who's passings were occurring with some regularity. While closest to his autobiographical writings rather than his novels and criticism his distinctive voice and well honed wit come through in three entertaining and evocative volumes. They are the final writings of an important voice in 20th century literature. We specialize in the works of and about Anthony Powell.
