Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch (1863 1944), who often published under the
pen-name of 'Q', was one of the giants of early twentieth-century
literature and literary criticism. A novelist and poet who was also
a Professor of English, he helped to form the literary tastes of
generations of literary students and scholars who came after him.
The freshness, enthusiasm and intellectual insight of his work is
still evident in his writings nearly a century on. Cambridge
University Press is delighted to reissue some of his key texts in
this new edition. Quiller-Couch was born in Cornwall and educated
at Newton Abbot College, Clifton College and Trinity College
Oxford. These autobiographical writings, first published shortly
after his death in 1944, describe his early years in Polperro and
his educational experiences, ending with his choice of an academic
career and the publication of his first novel.
