SITWELL, Dame EDITH (1887-1964) Taken care of. The autobiography of Edith Sitwell.
New York, Atheneum, 1965 Hard Cover Very Good
xii, 242 pages, cloth, dj, ex-library with usual library markings otherwise very good. From the preface: The reminiscences in this book are of the past. I do not refer to any of my dearly loved living friends. I trust that I have hurt nobody. It is true that, provoked beyond endurance by their insults, I have given Mr. Percy Windham Lewis and Mr. D.H. Lawrence some sharp slaps. I have pointed out, also, the depths to which the criticism of poetry has fallen, and the non-nutritive quality of the bun-tough whinings of certain little poetasters - but I have been careful, for instance, not to refer to the late Mr. Edwin Muir (Dr. Leavis's spiritual twin-sister). I have attacked nobody unless they first attacked me.
