Greene on Capri – a Memoir

Hazzard, Shirley

Thoughts on Capri and surrounds, meetings with Graham Greene – 'I never heard him pronounce on a book he hadn’t read, or invoke an influential name in order to impress. The common emblems of '‘importance', social and public attention, an air of authority, the flaunting of 'edge' were not his forms of egoism' – as well as other writers and, never to be underestimated, holidays and books; signed by the author and with two corrections to the text noted on the rear free endpaper as 'authorial corrections'.
