Review
"Shines with the same marvellous originality, intuition, sensuality and finish as his novels." - John Updike
"Green's works live with ever-brightening intensity--it's like dancing with Nijinsky or Astaire, who lead you effortlessly on." - "The Wall Street Journal"
"Green's novels-- have become, with time, photographs of a vanished England--Green's human qualities - his love of work and laughter; his absolute empathy; his sense of splendour amid loss - make him a precious witness to any age." - John Updike
"Green's books are solid and glittering as gems." - Anthony Burgess

Product Description
In PACK MY BAG, Henry Green chronicles his early life, providing a delightfully wayward and incisive portrait of English society and of the man himself. From reminiscences of a childhood spent among the gentry, to searing descriptions of Eton and Oxford, to reflections on the author's first experiments with prose and with sex.

Format:Paperback
Green was considered the best of his generation: his writing is approachable but not obvious, his insight is unique and revealing;... he's Hardy without the Definite Article. Try him (...a small price to change your view of literature forever), and I'd be interested in your views: anyone for a Green revival?
