![]() God alone knows what the effect has been on my output of pure literature. But perhaps I may be permitted to take this opportunity of explaining to you, a little more fully than I have hitherto hinted, something of the disabilities under which I had laboured to produce the pages now open beneath your hand.Īs you know, I have spent some ten years of my creative life in the meaningless and vulgar bustle of newspaper offices. You know (none better) the joys of the clean hearth and the rigour of the game. It is with something more than the natural deference of a tyro at the loveliest, most arduous and perverse of the arts in the presence of a master-craftsman that I lay this book before you. ![]() TO ANTHONY POOKWORTHY, ESQ., A.B.S., L.L.R.
