Product Description
Jonathan Fryer re-examines the literary achievement of Firbank and provides an absorbing insight into his private and public life amongst Britain's literati at the turn of the Century. A radical and ingenious writer of the modernist school, Ronald Firbank's most influential novels include Vainglory (1915), Prancing Nigger (1924) and Valmouth (1918). His mark has also been realized in Evelyn Waugh's most Firbankian novel Vile Bodies, adapted for cinema by Stephen Fry in his latest box-office hit, Bright Young Things.
