Beschreibung
Collected here are thirty-six of Norman Lewis's best articles, from more than five decades of publication in newspapers, anthologies and magazines. As a witness to his times - the good, the bad and the absurd - he was unmatched, and his instinct for important events, and moments, was infallible. His range here includes Ibizan fishermen, an interview with Castro's executioner, the genocide of the South American indigenous tribes, a paean to Seville and his meeting with a tragic Ernest Hemingway. Lewis told Ian Fleming, who had commissioned him, that the meeting was 'a shattering experience of the kind likely to sabotage ambition'.
Fortunately it didn't, and the articles assembled between these covers are compulsive, hilarious and beautifully written, at times deeply upsetting and always unforgettable.
