Sobre este artículo
Jarrold & Sons Ltd, London, 1926. First Edition. Hardcover (Original Cloth). Very Good Condition/Poor. colour frontis. portrait drawing of Priestley. As an essayist Priestley wrote for the 'middle brow' audience. His topics and themes are numerous. Of all the Yorkshire-born writers to have graced the twentieth century, none seems to embody the supposed characteristics of this county more than John Boynton Priestley. Born in Bradford in 1894, he seems now to exist in public memory as a grumpy, pipe-smoking purveyor of common-sense but his talents were many and this curmudgeonly persona seems to be something of a myth which he himself delighted in propagating. “I have a sagging face, a weighty underlip, a saurian eye and a rumbling voice,” he explained. “Money could not buy a better grumbling outfit.” Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. 86 pages. Gilt titles spine. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 250 grams. Category: Essays & Literary Criticism; 1920s; Literature & Literary. Inventory No: 4783. .
