Editor, among others, of Brian Moore, Jean Rhys and Molly Keane,
Athill's career represents an epoch in British publishing. Now in
her eighties, Athill was a founding director of Andre Deutsch, a
daring and dashing little firm that achieved fame and notoriety
publishing titles like Norman Mailer's The Naked and the Dead.
Athill's own writing is sharp but sanguine and includes many potted
piquant portraits of our most esteemed writers. Delicious. (Kirkus
UK)
Diana Athill's memoir of a life spent working with some of the
charismatic characters who have dominated 20th-century literature.
In a prose style of inimitable wit and rare candour, she recounts
tales from a long life in publishing, including her reflections on
editing writers such as V.S. Naipaul, Jean Rhys, Gitta Sereny and
Brian Moore. She also provides an account of her own writing
career, whcih includes the two critically-acclaimed works, "Instead
of a Letter" and "After a Funeral".
