Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Work of Robert Nathan It is Amazing how few writers seem ever to resemble the things they write. You are likely to find that a man who writes 3 heroic and romantic tales is a wizened, nearsighted little fellow with no chin and a trembling lip, or the lady who writes in a mincing nasty-nice style, devoting all her energies to mere arrangements of words, is a plain old maid who dresses atrociously and wears a pince-nez dangling from the end of her nose. The strangest things come from the strangest persons. But I have known one or two writers who looked like what they wrote. Certainly there are moments when George Moore´s dank figure and yellow hair resembles nothing so much as the more sea-sick portions of Lewis Seymour. And Conrad had a wild look and a singular fantastic Satanic beauty and so resembled such tales as Almayer´s Folly and Nostromo. Hugh Walpole resembles the solid roast beef which he writes.
