W. H. Auden: Prose: v. 3: 1949-1955

Zusatztext "This excellent tomb of a book is as academic as it is entertaining as it is informative as it is inspiring as it is (obviously) superbly well written. The only downside being, it ensures the literary bar is so highly placed, it ensures the rest of us can only ever negotiate coming close--if, with the exception of a selected few, such a thing is remotely possible." ---David Marx, bookreviews.davidmarx.co.uk Informationen zum Autor Edward Mendelson is the literary executor of the Estate of W.
