Collected Memoirs

Julian Maclaren-Ross

4.9/5 (19845 ratings)

Description:Julian Maclaren-Ross, with his carnation and silver-topped cane, his fur coat and dark glasses, was a natural bohemian and one of the most colourful inhabitants and chroniclers of the Soho and Fitzrovia of the forties, fifties and sixties. He knew and wrote about its most memorable characters including Dylan Thomas, Graham Greene, Cyril Connolly, Tambimuttu, Nina Hamnett and Woodrow Wyatt. He was something of a dandy and a gifted raconteur, and his life, often chaotic, and related unsentimentally by him in these memoirs, veered between the fringes of the literary establishment and occasional homelessness. Evoking a demolished era of incendiary bombs and rationing, Maclaren-Ross misses none of it and provides an anecdotal history of the place that, between the bombs, offered writers and artists a home away from home."An entertaining portrait of a wartime London seldom shown, together with six of the author's best stories."
