Sursum Corda! Vol. 1 1926-1946: The Collected Letters Of Malcolm Lowry
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
Malcolm Lowry, author of "Under the Volcano", was also a writer of superb letters. Collected here for the first time are close to 800 letters spanning over 30 years, most of them never before published. Lowry's letters range from his detailed, erudite, 35-page exegis of his masterpiece to impassioned letters and notes to his wives. They include witty, ironic self-parodies, letters to younger writers full of generous advice and literary discussion, and letters with analysis and acute insights into politics and current affairs.; Lowry frequently illustrated his letters with drawings, marginal sketches and symbols of good cheer, such as the seagulls which adorn many of the later letters. These illustrations have been produced in both volumes of "The Collected Letters of Malcolm Lowry" together with many photographs of Lowry, his correspondents, and reproductions of holograph letters. Hardback with dust jacket in protective sleeve, unclipped. Owner book plate and other inserts pasted in (see images). Slight shelf wear reflecting age. A very good copy.
