Sybille Bedford brings a vivid novelist's eye to the life of one of the great literary lights of the twentieth century in this masterful biography. I enjoyed both the intimate details as they unfolded through narrative and judicious vignettes of key events of his life. ( ) I don’t know if this is the best or most objective bio of Huxley, since the author was a friend and doesn’t have much bad to say about him, but it was certainly interesting. He was an interesting guy. I’d read and loved Island and Brave New World, and knew he’d taken LSD. I hadn’t known he’d had such a hard childhood (he lost his mother and eyesight in the same year) or that he was interested in Dianetics, or was such a committed pacifist. It was time well spent. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
