Christopher Isherwood: Notes in Remembrance of a Friendship
"I think it was during one of my visits to him at his mother"s house in Kensington that he started to plan his second novel, "The Memorial". I remember him striding about his room in the excitement of working out the plot, while every now and then I interjected my suggestions just as I had done when he"d been planning "Seascape with Figures" during our holiday on the Sicily Isles. I shall never forget his trick of crooking a forefinger and briefly biting it whenever an especially promising idea came to him." This beautiful letter-press printed book is printed on Hambledon cream antique paper by Peter Lloyd at The Holbeche Press, Rugby. The wrapper is a Curwen pattern paper, designed by Paul Nash c.1926. The edition is limited to two-hundred numbered copies, signed by Edward Upward.
