Now in paperback, here are the sparkling essays of Muriel Spark, the writer of the best sentences in English (The New Yorker) A fantastic essayist, the inimitable Muriel Spark addresses here the writing life, cats, favorite writers (the Bronts, T. S. Eliot, Robert Burns, Mary Shelley), love, Piero della Francesca, life in wartime London and in glamorous HollywoodontheTiber 1960s Rome, faith, and parties (on her first New Years Eve, as a baby sipping her mothers sherry: I always loved a party).No one was as fearless and original (TLS) as Muriel Spark, who believed that art is an act of daring. Here she glides from the mysteries of Jobs sufferings to Dame Edith Sitwells cocktail advice about how to handle a nasty publisher: My dear, she said, you must acquire a pair of lorgnettes, make an occasion to see that man again, focus the glasses on him and sit looking at him through them as if he was an insect. Just look and look.
