Evelyn Waugh's first book: a portrait of one of the greatest
artists of the nienteenth century, from one of the greatest writers
of the twentieth 'Biography, as books about the dead are
capriciously catalogued, is still very much in the mode' This is a
sparkling account of Dante Gabriel Rossetti's tragic and mysterious
life, telling the story behind some of the greatest poetry and
painting of the nineteenth century. Shot through with charm and dry
wit, and illuminated by his sense of kinship with the
Pre-Raphaelite artist, Rossetti is at once a brilliant reevaluation
of Rosetti's work and legacy, as well as a blast of defiance
against the art establishment of Waugh's day. 'The youthful high
spirits of the writing make this a true cultural delight' New
Statesman 'To be celebrated with fireworks, bunting and marching
bands' Country Life
