The article presents information on the book "Old Friends: Personal Recollections," by Clive Bell. The book consists of recollections of Walter Sickert, Lytton Strachey, Keynes, Roger Fry, Virginia Woolf and T.S. Eliot, an essay on "Bloomsbury" as a group and a state of mind, and memories of Paris in 1904 and in the twenties and the painters he knew there. In the essay on Bloomsbury he asks whether it ever existed and implies that it did not. The most valuable parts of the book are those devoted to his Bloomsbury friends.
