- About My Library
- My library of between 2500 and 3000 books is currently held by the John J. Burns Library of Rare Books and Special Collections at Boston College, who purchased it for approximately £1m four years after my death.
While alive, I was noted for manner in which I used my library; letters and photos were often filed inside the books, and I frequently used the flyleaves and margins as impromptu notebooks, jotting down anything from diary entries and commentary on the work to notes for use in my own books. - About Me
- I was born in England in 1904, and am considered by some to be one of the foremost 20th century novelists from that nation. I divided my works into two categories: "novels", which frequently dealt with philosophical and moral concerns, and "entertainments", which often dealt with the world of international politics and intrigue. I died in Switzerland in 1991.
