This is a marvellous anthology of diary entries, arranged by date rather than by theme. This means that there are some delightfully arbitrary juxtapositions and some very poignant ones. It led me to discover a number of wonderful diarists, including Frances Partridge, Barbara Pym, Denton Welch and Fanny Burney. I also became very fond of Elias Ashmole, who provides regular doleful bulletins on the state of his fundament. ( )
The Faber Book of Diaries consists of extracts from the diaries of 108 people, alphabetically from J. R. Ackerley to Walter Yonge, chronologically from Henry Machin (1498-1563) to Jimmy Boyle (1944-).
This book presents a selection of the best of four centuries of British diaries, resulting in a kaleidoscope of English life in all its variety. 1400 entries, taken from over 100 diaries, speak of international events, public ceremonies, private joys, griefs and aspirations.
