The Same Man : George Orwell And Eveyln Waugh In Love And War

  • The Same Man : George Orwell And Eveyln Waugh In Love And War

  • Attribution

    David Lebedoff

  • Publication Details

    Book, 1st ed, Random House, 2008

  • Description

    Waugh and Orwell would meet only once, as the latter lay dying of tuberculosis, yet as The Same Man brilliantly shows, in their life and work both writers rebelled against a modern world run by a privileged, sometimes brutal, few. Orwell and Waugh were almost alone among their peers in seeing what the future?our time?would bring, and they dedicated their lives to warning us against what was coming: a world of material wealth but few values, an existence without tradition or community or common purpose, where lives are measured in dollars, not sense.

Joseph Conrad : A Life

  • Joseph Conrad : A Life

  • Attribution

    Zdzislaw Najder ; translated by Halina Najder

  • Publication Details

    Book, 2nd extensively rev. English-language ed, Camden House, 2007

  • Links

  • Description

    Joseph Conrad is not only one of the world’s great writers of English — and world — literature, but was a writer who lived a particularly full and interesting life. Najder’s command of English, French, Polish, and Russian allowed him access to a greater variety of sources than any other biographer, and his Polish background and his own experience as an exile have afforded him a unique affinity for Conrad and his milieu.

Fathers And Sons : The Autobiography Of A Family

  • Fathers And Sons : The Autobiography Of A Family

  • Attribution

    Alexander Waugh

  • Publication Details

    Book, 1st U.S. ed, Nan A. Talese, 2007

  • Links

  • Description

    If there is a literary gene, then the Waugh family most certainly has it?and it clearly seems to be passed down from father to son. Evelyn begat, among seven others, Auberon Waugh, who would carry on in the family tradition of literary skill and eccentricity, becoming one of England?s most incorrigibly cantankerous and provocative newspaper columnists, loved and loathed in equal measure. Based on the recollections of his father and on a mine of hitherto unseen documents relating to his grandfather, Evelyn, the book skillfully traces the threads that have linked father to son across a century of war, conflict, turmoil and change.
