This is a collection of Simon Raven's essays (long and short), poems, stories, and more controversial reviews. It spans a ten-year period and includes several (at the time) unpublished pieces (for example, an outrageous account of New Year's Eve on the island of Crete).
According to the blurb, this volume not only contains many pieces that are of great interest in themselves, but it is also a continuous and rather disreputable chronicle of a writer's way of life.
Published by Anthony Blond, London, 1963.
