Hardcover. First Ed USA, so stated. First Ed USA, so stated. Fine in Fine DJ: Book shows binding square and secure; text clean. DJ unclipped; mylar-protected. As New. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 184pp. Hardback with DJ. One of Britain's most esteemed men of letters, Sir Angus offers this gathering of his travel writings dating from 1957 to 1984. His rich and candid mind, and his exuberant enjoyment of places and cultures, lead him sometimes into stylistic excesses. No matterthis, his 18th book, is literate, entertaining armchair travel. The 13 essays open with Sir Angus's impressions of the Japanese as he got to know them in 1957 while visiting Tokyo with a group of international writers. Similarly upbeat is his piece on Brighton, for the British "the jolliest resort in the world"a gem of nostalgic affection. His 1961 return to South Africa, "my mother's land" (Wilson grew up there), offers sensitive speculations on apartheid's future. His pieces on the Channel Islands and his 1975 retracing of Kipling's footsteps in culturally paradoxical India give a lift to less stimulating areas where Sir Angus pens his observations on Sri Lanka, Arizona and zoos he has visited.

Hard Cover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. First USA Edition. Dust jacket complete, unclipped. Black cloth spine over boards. Bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership inscription. 184 pages clean and tight. Novelist, biographer, playwright, critic, Sir Angus Wilson has long distinguished himself as one of the world's greatest men of letters, and this extraordinary collection of essays proves more than ever why-as a travel writer-he is still welcome in that company. Listen to him describing a scene at the London Zoo: "Great tortoises. . . best reveal their slow wrinkled agelessness in some crowded, dusty paddock. The sight of one of these monsters climbing over the vast circumference of another's shell, the brittle nails of one huge, sagging, fleshy foot tapping its slow-motion ascent while another foot drags slowly up behind it, seems at first an appalling irreverence to great age. I have watched these tortoise scenes and I have now come to see the disregard of these ancient creatures for one another's dignity as the supreme height of apartness, of old age's indifference. It is easy indeed to summon up the pathetic fallacy when watching tortoises or turtles. Who can see the great turtles swimming around one another in some aquarium tank, who can observe their slow curved flippers and their pouting, parrot-beaked mouths, without feeling that they are an embodiment of incurable melancholy, a funeral wake under water?" Whether vacationing with Khrushchev at his resort on the Black Sea, observing apartheid firsthand in South Africa, seeking to unravel the mysteries of India that so enchanted Rudyard Kipling, or discovering the essence of America in the magnificent Arizona desert, Angus Wilson unites people and place with unusual skill. In so doing, he brings an array of cultures into penetrating focus, perceiving the character of the peoples he journeys among, unraveling their psyches, and reflecting on himself and his fellow travelers in the process. Size: 8vo.
