Review # 2 was written on 2018-02-20 00:00:00 Claude Simpson I started reading this book not knowing who the author was! The book I have is old, old, and doesn't list an author at all; for a while I wondered if it was an autobiography, written in the third person. This is the next best thing; Cecil is a good writer, and he obviously knew his subject well enough to make both disparaging and positive observations with authority. It made me want to read more of GK; particularly The Napoleon of Notting Hill. My favorite part of the book was actually the very end: Cecil goes into all sorts of speculations about which of GK's works will last, whether he'll be known to future generations, and what sorts of literature he should tackle next. Great fun! Definitely recommended to GK fans. |
