".Gore Vidal again demonstrates in these seven stories that maturity of craftsmanship and individuality which has gained him an important place among writers. He has wit; he has variety; he has a style. Of the hundreds of new writers to come out of the Second World War only a handful have continued to develop to grow. He has survived notoriety and early success to achieve a career of letters that is unique a body of work that is substantial a perception of reality which is precise and illuminating. After reading 'A Moment of Green Laurel' published here for the first time one appreciates the comment of The Times Literary Supplement: 'It is quite possible for a successful young novelist like Mr. Gore Vidal to live in America and prevent anything he does not want from impinging on his consciousness and as he matures a correlation between his standards and those he does not follow. From the fusion a peculiarly American literature developes.'." Purchase with confidence: all books gradings and descriptions are rendered the care of a genuine bibliophile.
