V.S. Pritchett

Descriere

V. S. Pritchett (1900-1997) - VSP as he was affectionately known - was the greatest British short-story writer of the twentieth century, and one of its liveliest and most humane critics. The story of his own life was extraordinary, full of comedy and pathos and eccentricities. He may seem the quintessential quiet Englishman, overlooked in a corner, but as Jeremy Treglown says in this brilliant new life, he was always 'a man in disguise'.
