-- First paperback edition.
-- An exploration of the inability of language to account for
thought and feeling, Imago Bird is also an inventive and witty
coming-of-age story. Eighteen-year-old Bert, highly intelligent and
nephew to the prime minister of England, tries to make sense of the
adult world around him (a mix of politics, pop stars, and
television personalities) while struggling with a constant stammer
and questions about the relationship between the interior and
exterior world.
-- Nicholas Mosley is the author of a dozen novels and half a dozen
works of nonfiction -- including a biography of his father, Sir
Oswald Mosley, the notorious leader of the British fascist party.
Two of his novels (Accident and Impossible Object) have been made
into films. He lives in London with his wife.
-- First U.S. edition by Dalkey Archive ('89).
