Light Years (Paperback, New edition)

Cultural Writing. Born in Cork, Ireland in 1943, Augustus Young was educated at the universities of Cork, Dundee and London. He left home and arrived in London in 1967 with dubious credentials as a published poet, ' a science degree and a career to make. So begins LIGHT YEARS, a masterly reenactment of the author's literary development. "Funny, self-aware and beedy-eyed, Augustus Young is a chronicler of rare originality and wit. His episodic approach gives his writing a briskness and lightness of touch lacking in the more portentious memoir; his meeting with Basil Bunting is a comic masterpiece, essential to any future collection of literary anecdotes"--Jeremy Lewis.
