Monsarrat describes his privileged childhood in Liverpool, where his father was the greatest surgeon of his time, recalling all the small details of a provincial upbringing. The accou nt of his days at public school are acidly described, and in remarkable contrast to his golden days at Cambridge, where he enjoyed good friends, good wine, and little work. At twenty-three, Monsarrat turned his back on his comfortable famil y home, fled from the desk of his uncle's solicitor's office, and settled in a s ingle, mildewed room in London, with a typewriter and a half-finished manuscript . There, he describes the years of learning to write, learning to live, and lear ning to loveinvaluable lessons for a future that comprised war, emigration, mari tal upheaval, and the hazards of artistic achievement. The second part, Breaking Out, takes us to the year in which Monsarrat produced the novel widely acclaime d as his finest, The Tribe That Lost Its Head; the year when he was living in Ot tawa as chief of the British Information Services; the year he calls The Year of the Stupid Ox. As Monsarrat charts life with astonishing frankness, we are give n a stunning portrait of this complex character, this brilliant storyteller. Artikel-Nr. 3872t
