Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from De Quincey and His Friends: Personal Recollections, Souvenirs and Anecdotes of Thomas De Quincey, His Friends and Associates For many years, in the throng of a busy life, I have indulged the hope that I might, some day, be able to draw together the scattered souvenirs and anecdotes of Thomas de Quincey - adding such personal recollections of my own as memory still kept fresh. It appeared to me that by doing so some service would be done to literature and some good use made of the unequalled opportunities I enjoyed during years of intimate and continuous intercourse with the author. Now that the long-lost letters and papers, fragments of the "Suspiria," &c., have at last seen the light, and I have attained my sixty-sixth year, with sufficient leisure at command, I attempt the task. It is my grateful duty to record the various cordial, kindly aids which I have received, and which, I trust, will make this volume a welcome addition to De Quincey literature - worthy to stand on the shelf alongside those "Collected Works" of the author which my father, my brother, and myself were first privileged to set before the public.
