Oxford Professor, Bestselling Author, Preeminent Literary Critic, Playwright, Screenwriter, And Novelist, Terry Eagleton Knows All About The Claims Of Competing Worlds. One Of His Earliest Roles Growing Up Catholic In Protestant England Was As 'The Gatekeeper'The Altar Boy Who At Reverend Mothers Nod Literally Closed The Door On Young Women Taking The Veil, Separating The Sanctity Of The Convent From Earthly Temptations And Family Obligations.Often Scathingly Funny, Frequently Tender, And Always Completely Engaging, The Gatekeeper Is Eagletons Memoirs, His Deepetched Portraits Of Those Who Influenced Him, Either By Example Or By Contrast: His Father, Headmasters, Priests, And Cambridge Dons. He Was A Shy, Bookish, Asthmatic Boy Keenly Aware Of Social Inferiority Yet Determined To Make His Intellectual Way. 'Our Aim In Life,' He Writes Of His Workingclass, Irishimmigrantdescended Family, 'Was To Have The Words We Were No Trouble Inscribed On Our Tombstones.' But Eagleton Knew Trouble Was The Point Of It All. Opening Doors Sometimes Meant Rattling The Knobs. At Both Cambridge And Oxford, He Gravitated Toward Dialectics And Mavericks, Countering Braying Effeteness With Withering If Dogmatic Dissections Of The Class System.The Gatekeeper Mixes The Soberly Serious With The Downright Hilarious, Skewersharp Satire With Unashamed Fondness, The Personal With The Political. Most Of It All It Reveals A Young Man Learning To Reconcile Differences And Oppositions: A Doubleedged Portrait Of The Intellectual As A Young Man.
