A dazzling collection of occasional writings by the Nobel
Prize-winning novelist on subjects ranging from Thermopylae to the
English Channel, and from _Coral Island_ to Jules Verne.
'A book of occasional essays which afford us many fascinating insights
into Golding the man . . .It is highly individual yet profoundly
modest; it has an unusual, slightly angular candour, full of painful
knowledge and a beautiful humanity . . . event the slightest piece
bears the mark of his rare, austere mind, his remarkable imagination .
. . Even these occasional essays are enough to remind us that . . .
there is not, at the moment, a writer to touch him.' _New Society_
