your letter about 'Nocturne' and it was very kind of you to write it. Thank you.
I am so glad the book gave pleasure. Yours Sincerely". Swinnerton
(1884-1982) was an English author and critic. In all, he published over 30
novels between 1909 and 1976, many of which were iconoclastic, highly sensuous
and just generally modernist. His most successful novel was 1917's
Nocturne, but he retained at least some of that success for the rest of
his life. Swinnerton was a familiar literary presence in the first half of
the 20th Century (he was an editor for authors like Aldous Huxley before he took
up writing full-time), and accumulated plenty of material for works like the
memoir The Georgian Literary Scene (1935), two autobiographies and the
book Arnold Bennett: A Last Word (1978). Lightly toned and creased.
Irregular bottom edge. Adhesive residue and paper loss on verso (no
show-through). Folded once horizontally and vertically and unfolded. Otherwise
in fine condition.
