In the course of her brilliant career Sylvia Townsend Warner wrote
superbly in many and diverse forms but never penned a memoir,
properly speaking. However, from the 1930s to the 1970s she did
contribute a series of short reminiscences to the "New Yorker."
"Scenes of Childhood" collects and orders those reminiscences, thus
forming a volume that reads as a joyous, wry and moving testament
to the experience of being alive. The collection evokes a
recognisably English world of nannies, butlers, pet podles, public
schools, 'good works' and country churches, but the resonances of
these stories are universal - funny and touching by turns.
