  • ISBN : 1429979259
  • Pages : 168 pages

Download or read book Greene on Capri written by Shirley Hazzard and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2000-02-07 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subtle portrait of a great but difficult man and a legendary island. When friends die, one's own credentials change: one becomes a survivor. Graham Greene has already had biographers, one of whom has served him mightily. Yet I hope that there is room for the remembrance of a friend who knew him-not wisely, perhaps, but fairly well-on an island that was "not his kind of place," but where he came season after season, year after year; and where he, too, will be subsumed into the capacious story. For millennia the cliffs of Capri have sheltered pleasure-seekers and refugees alike, among them the emperors Augustus and Tiberius, Henry James, Rilke, and Lenin, and hosts of artists, eccentrics, and outcasts. Here in the 1960s Graham Greene became friends with Shirley Hazzard and her husband, the writer Francis Steegmuller; their friendship lasted until Greene's death in 1991. In Greene on Capri, Hazzard uses their ever volatile intimacy as a prism through which to illuminate Greene's mercurial character, his work and talk, and the extraordinary literary culture that long thrived on this ravishing, enchanted island.

Book Capri

  • Author : James Money
  • Publisher : Faber & Faber
  • Release : 2012-11-29
  • ISBN : 0571297838
  • Pages : 391 pages

Download or read book Capri written by James Money and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2012-11-29 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The air of Capri has had an extraordinary effect on many remarkable people down the centuries - as if the island had come to the collective decision that it was made for pleasure, a commodity that foreign visitors have always found there in spades. It was on Capri that the Emperor Tiberius built a palace where he 'gave vent to all the vices' that he hadn't been able to indulge in Rome. In the nervous days following the trial of Oscar Wilde, English homosexuals found Capri a perfect haven. And in 1919 one Capri resident even remarked on the necessity of swathing her two dogs in chastity belts...James Money's Capri, first published in 1986, is the first full social history of the island: a rambunctious tale that boasts a vivid cast of characters, usually found in various states of congress.

Harry Montana team up to take the suspects--and also six ‘red herrings'--on a fabulous Mediterranean cruise, all expenses paid by the late Sir Robert.
