Book Jottings to the End of His Days

Download or read book Jottings to the End of His Days written by T. S. Matthews and published by Wheatmark, Inc.. This book was released on 2009 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Jottings to the End of His Days" by T. S. Matthews began a few years before he turned 80. Since the last one appeared in 1990 only months before his death (12 days shy of his ninetieth birthday) they are, in the main, the jottings of an octogenarian. They don't seem so, except for those concerned with becoming and being old and those contemplating death. Most seem to have too much bite or juice to have come from the pen of an old man. They were almost invariably written down on little scraps of paper, never bigger than an old envelope, usually at night with some drink in him, though some were the product of the very early morning before anyone else was awake. Matthews then recorded the ones he liked into blue notebooks. In fact, these "jottings" reveal more about Matthews and his inner self than either of his autobiographical books. There are more intimate revelations, flashes of indecent exposure, if you will, than appeared in his earlier work. Rearranged and further screened, they paint an extraordinary portrait of T. S. Matthews than any biographer would find hard to match. What a portrait it is! About the Author Thomas Stanley Matthews was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, the only son of an Episcopal clergyman who later became bishop of New Jersey. Matthews was educated at Princeton University and New College, Oxford. Although expected to follow his father into the church, he lost his faith as a young adult. More to his interest was poetry and writing. After Oxford he married Princeton town belle Juliana Stevens Cuyler and wrote for the "New Republic." A few years later he became a book reviewer for "TIME Magazine." Lifting the level of intellectual coverage "TIME" gave the literary world, Matthews was among the first to discover and give wider currency to such poets as Ezra Pound and T. S. Eliot, on whom he would later write a biography. By 1943 he landed the managing editor position at "TIME," which he held for the next seven years. To his fellow editors he was known as the toughest and the best editor in America. When Matthews resigned in 1953, he was offered a position establishing "TIME-in-Britain." Businesspeople found that "TIME-in-Britain" would be ready to make a profit after six months. Unfortunately, Luce & Company decided that "Sports Illustrated" would make more money, so "TIME-in-Britain" was scratched. Widowed five years earlier, Matthews felt no desire to return to Eisenhower's America, so he settled in England to do what he had always wanted to do: write poetry and books. While he visited the States many times, Matthews, in effect, became an expatriate. He did most of his writing in England where he died at his home in Cavendish, Suffolk, just twelve days short of his ninetieth birthday.

Book Jottings

    Book Details:
  • Author : Liz Smith
  • Publisher : Simon and Schuster
  • Release : 2008-09-04
  • ISBN : 1847395007
  • Pages : 206 pages

Download or read book Jottings written by Liz Smith and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-09-04 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JOTTINGS is a collection of the stories that Liz Smith has written over the years. Sometimes they explore the darker side of life and what may occur out of the public gaze: a rich and lonely housewife neglects her child and the nanny subjects her charge to unpleasant and adult scenes; a man's wish for fame catapults him into prison and mistaken notoriety; an unhappy wife loses her only friend and is haunted by her. Other stories are more amusing: the sexy, man-eating woman who runs the mobile library: moving through the fog of 1950's London with the help of a blind man; a scheming daughter who plans to take her mother's money has a surprising comeuppance. Liz's stories are unexpected, original and revealing of a writer who is fascinated by relationships and the barriers we erect between our public and private selves.
