"The first section of this book, consisting of sixteen chapters and three appendices, was first published in 1947 and [was] out of print for many years. The second section, "Notes from a Diary of 1964-64: Paris, Rome, Budapest," appears here in book form for the first time. The book includes an interview with Santayana, whom the author visited in Rome at the end of the Second World War, and essays on the literature of Malraux, Silone, Lampedusa and Chistiane Rochefort." Please see the pictures for more information and detail as to contents and condition. This book comes from the estate of Maine poet and avid book collector Charles G. Wilson (1898-1967), who lived in Kingfield Maine, had unusually good taste in books, and took uncommonly good care of them.
