Sylvia Warner Townsend Warner’s biography of T. H. White, which had an enthusiastic reception, recvealed in the author of The Sword in the Stone a gnarled and tormented personality, fascinating in its diversity. The series of letters between White and David Garnett, the author of Aspects of Love and many other books, is a study in greater depth of one of the friendships that made up taht life and flourished in the long and amusing letters they wrote each other over almost thirty years.
