Davies Robertson; Grant Judith Skelton Editor
For Your Eye Alone
McClelland & Stewart 1999-01-01. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Signed by Author. Signed and personally inscribed by Judith Skelton Grant on the title page.this copy has a solid tight binding with clean unmarked pages.Robertson Davies brought a great sense of style to everything he wrote. Whether it was a letter to his daughter “Love from us both Daddy” or a formal letter to the editor disembowelling a hostile reviewer that concludes humbly “I am content to remain Yours writhing in deserved ignominy…” he wrote with care with zest and in a clearly distinctive voice.Since these letters written by Davies have been selected from the years when he was at the height of his fame the recipients range widely from Sir John Gielgud to Margaret Atwood and from Greg Gatenby “You are a merciless man and God will punish you in the next world” to his publishers abroad. Naturally like all the best letters they contain fascinating gossip: “…and Salvador Dali at the next table raised his eyebrows and popped his eyes to such a degree that I feared they might leave their moorings and bounce about the floor.”The title of the book comes from a confidential letter to Jack McClelland and hints at the secrets to be learned from these letters. This “over the shoulder” look at his private correspondence shows us Davies in a variety of roles: as an old friend consoling Horace Davenport on the loss of his son; as a university administrator bewailing the miseries of fundraising; as a keen theatre-goer writing a letter of congratulations to an actor after a fine performance; as a professional writer advocating fair rates for authors to a cabinet minister; as a husband constructing a handwritten circular card to convey loving birthday greetings to his wife; as a bearer of health-giving good cheer to an ailing friend; and as a novelist struggling with his new books and admitting to his doubts about them.The letters are frequently testy tart and not always “politically correct.” Among those who felt his sting are Judith Skelton Grant his biographer and Douglas Gibson his publisher but other more deserving targets are suitably chastised. And whether they are funny moving or thought-provoking these private letters provide a new look at the private Davies revealed in his own vigorous words. McClelland & Stewart hardcover

Price inside dustcover: $29.95. Number line: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 - NO remainder marks or price clippings. 402 pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. Tight spine bright pages. - Synopsis "Robertson Davies brought a great sense of style to everything he wrote. Whether it was a letter to his daughter "Love from us both Daddy" or a formal letter to the editor disemboweling a hostile review that concludes humbly "I am content to remain Yours writhing in deserved ignominy ." he wrote with care with zest and in a clearly distinctive voice." "Since these letters written by Davies have been selected from the years when he was at the height of his fame the recipients range widely from Sir John Gielgud to Margaret Atwood to his publishers around the world. Naturally like all the best letters they contain fascinating gossip: ". and Salvador Dali at the next table raised his eyebrows and popped his eyes to such a degree that I feared they might leave their moorings and bounce about the floor." "The title of the book comes from a confidential letter to Jack McClelland and hints at the secrets to be learned from these letters. This "over the shoulder" look at his private correspondence shows us Davies in a variety of roles: as a keen theatergoer writing a letter of congratulations to an actor after a fine performance; as a professional writer advocating to a cabinet minister fair rates for authors; as a husband constructing a handwritten circular card to convey loving birthday greetings to his wife; as a bearer of health - giving good cheer to an ailing friend; and as a novelist struggling with his new books and admitting to his doubts about them." "The letters are frequently testy tart and not always "politically correct." Among those who felt his sting are Judith Skelton Grant his biographer and Douglas Gibson his publisher but other more deserving targets are suitably chastised. And whether they are funny moving or thought provoking these private letters provide a new look at the private Davies revealed in his own vigorous words."--BOOK JACKET. Publishers Weekly In amassing the first collection of the late Canadian novelist's letters Davies's biographer Grant Robertson Davies: Man of Myth discovered many had actually been framed which says something about not only Davies's status as grand old man of Canuck letters but also their sheer entertainment value. This volume covers the years from 1976 when he was 63 to his death in 1995; during this period he was at last a successful public figure as the master of Massey College at the University of Toronto and the successful novelist of the Deptford Trilogy. His status is elevated enough that he not only helpfully blurbs aspiring novelists' works but also burlesques literary critics and book reviewers though he warns one lucky recipient "PS: Of course this letter is for your eye alone". In the world of letters his correspondents include fellow novelists John Irving Mordecai Richler and Margaret Atwood his editors and translators and of course his readers from schoolgirls to college professors. He deals with them all with equanimity and good humor whether answering questions about his Jungian symbolism or explicating the Canada-Quebec culture wars and the propinquitous influence of the United States. As a public figure he occasionally writes open letters to newspaper editors; in private his sentiments range from cheerfully curmudgeonly to plain irascible. His sporadic reminiscences about his early years in the theater in England and in provincial journalism might leave the reader wishing for letters from that younger Davies but as these show the great writer mastered the art of growing old gracefully and entertainingly. Jan. 15 Forecast: Thanks to Davies's sterling reputation this will be widely reviewed. Davies has legions of fans south of the Canadian border and they will delight. Viking Press Hardcover
