Seller's Description:
Very Good jacket. New York. 1970. Oxford University Press. 1st Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0192121847. 212 pages. hardcover. keywords: England Autobiography Art Literature. DESCRIPTION-The painter Frank Budgen is a writer and observer of real gifts. In this memoir of his early life he employs a narrative device that renders with great immediacy and vigour the stages of his personal odyssey: his impoverished turn-of-the-century boyhood in Surrey and North London, his training by the Marine Society, his years as a merchant seaman: G.P.O. clerk, and artist's model in Paris, pre-war Germany, and Switzerland. The early sections of the book are in the third person, each one narrated by a different ‘self' called by the nickname-Moony, Jesus, Doctor, Felix, Ethelred-which Budgen bore at that time in his life; and these earlier selves reappear on occasion in the first-person narration of the later sections. In Zurich during the First World War Budgen provided odyssean information for a novel his friend James Joyce was the record of that friendship, which Budgen published in JAMES JOYCE AND THE MAKING OF ‘ULYSSES' (1934), is still an important source of background on the novel. MYSELVES WHEN YOUNG adds in its final pages some choice anecdotes to ‘the Joyce saga'; but it is equally valuable as a portrait of the artist Frank Budgen, a most sanguine and attractive figure, and his time. inventory #1813.
