About This Item
Faber & Faber, London, 1976. First Edition. Hardcover (Original Cloth). Very Good Condition/Very Good. Illustrator: Photographic. 800 g; XII, 372 pages, chapter notes, indexed. Black and white frontispiece, and 28 pages of black-and-white photography. Photographic illustrated dust jacket. Slight yellowing of the page edges, and traces of foxing, and light rubbing to the edges. " Mr. Heymann's biographical study of Ezra Pound deals fully and frankly with his political and economic concerns without in any way detracting from his standing as a major poet and an astute critic, the midwife of the modern movement in English letters. After a brief account of Pound's years in London and Paris, Mr Heymann depicts in detail the long sojourn in Italy, with the intervening 12 years of confinement in Washington. This is a most carefully researched and skillfully presented study. Although the revelation of Pound's commitment to the cause of fascism makes painful reading, the end of the story, describing the years of silence and self absorption, in Venice, brings a kind of peace after storm. -- front fold over flap.
