About This Item

London: Macmillan, 1946. 319 pp, 8 3/4" H. B&w photographs + b&w reproductions of paintings by John Piper. The second volume of Sir Osbert Sitwell's autobiography "carries the life of the author on from his eighth to his eighteenth year, (with) a constant broadening and enrichment of the story in the development of his own experience and interests, in the expansion of other personalities that germinated in 'Left Hand, Right Hand!' and in the sequels that are now given us to various clues. Full of humour, percipience and candour, (it) is a book to be read and re-read, the story of the making of one of the most gifted and cultivated writers of our time." Light toning in margins of pages, very light browning to fore-edge of text block, slight fading at top edge of spine, minor edge wear on boards. Dust jacket has been price-clipped, has moderate browning on spine and flap-folds, light rubbing/soiling on rear panel, light browning along top edge, protected in a mylar sleeve.. First Edition.
