"The Arms of the Infinite" takes the reader inside the minds of
author Christopher Barker's parents, writer Elizabeth Smart ("By
Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept") and poet George Barker.
From their first fateful meeting and subsequent elopement, Barker
candidly reveals their obsessive, passionate, and volatile love
affair.
He writes evocatively of his unconventional upbringing with his
siblings in a shack in Ireland and, later, a rambling, falling-down
house in Essex. Interesting and charismatic figures from the
literary and art worlds are regular visitors, and the book is full
of fascinating cameos and anecdotes.
World rights except United Kingdom.
