Synopsis

The second volume of the two-volume autobiography.

The narrative begins in 1959, with the author’s return from Brunei and the start of a professional writing career and ends in 1982 with the centenary celebrations of James Joyce’s birth, which prompt the author to certain conclusions about the relationship between literature and life. Rarely, if ever, has a writer exposed his inner life so completely and with such vigour, humour and linguistic verve.
