Biography

This volume of posthumously collected personal writings is the closest we may ever come to the autobiography of this most private of writers. Translator(s): McLaughlin, Martin. Series: Penguin Modern Classics. Num Pages: 272 pages. BIC Classification: BGLA; DNF. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 198 x 164 x 17. Weight in Grams: 206.
