"Un mundo dentro del mundo, la célebre autobiografía de Stephen Spender, contiene vívidos retratos de Virginia Woolf, W.B. Yeats, T.S. Eliot, Auden o Cristopher Isherwood, y una fascinante descripción de la Europa de los años veinte y treinta: el frío brillo de la vida universitaria inglesa, el desenfreno erótico y cultural de la Alemania de entreguerras, y un relato distanciado y personalísimo de la participación del autor en la guerra civil española." I enjoyed this book very much as I found him very interesting, sensitive and extremely honest considering the time in which it was written. The 50's were stifling to anyone that wasn't white bread and butter. His life crossed paths with many fascinating people such as W.H. Auden, Christopher Isherwood, T.S. Eliot, Virginia Woolf. The profound long term affect of his difficult childhood is very well done. Zeige 4 von 4
At one stage of his life Mr Spender took to painting and, he naively tells us, then learned the great lesson that 'it is possible entirely to lack talent in an art where one believes oneself to have creative feeling.' It is odd that this never occurred to him while he was writing, for to see him fumbling with our rich and delicate language is to experience all the horror of seeing a Sèvres vase in the hands of a chimpanzee.
One of a series of titles first published by Faber between 1930 and 1990, and in a style and format planned with a view to the appearance of the volumes on the bookshelf. Spender's literary autobiography incorporates portraits of contemporaries such as Woolf, Yeats, Eliot, Auden and Isherwood. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
