Abstract

The Sitwells Present-

Codman, Florence | April 16, 1930 issue

add to cart   close window

The article discusses books and authors. Many of the aesthetics of author Osbert Sitwell's book, "The Man Who Lost Himself," must be discounted. Whether biography is the only material which offers a perfect design for a novel; whether, to obtain a proper perspective of a man living today, it is necessary to postulate the remote future; whether the typical twentieth-century novel will set a balance between mind and action are questions Sitwell plays with but to which, he makes no definite replies.
