Description
|
|
|
|
Growing up in the world of Virginia Woolf and the other Bloomsberries, Nigel Nicolson was the co-founder of publishers Weidenfeld & Nicolson and was a Conservative Member of Parliament in the 1950s; he was also the youngest of three sons of MP Harold Nicolson and his bisexual wife Vita Sackville-West. In this memoir Nigel offers a fresh perspective on their marriage; recounts how his twenties were subsumed—like others of his generation—by the Second World War (he served in the Grenadier Guards in North Africa); and covers his later life as an MP and full-time writer and publisher.
