Hardback. Oliver Goldsmith arrived in England a penniless Irishman and toiled for years in the anonymity of Grub Street. Norma Clarke tells how this destitute scribbler became one of literary London's most celebrated authors, transmuting dark truths about the empire into fable and nostalgia whose undertow of Irish indignation remains just barely perceptible. Num Pages: 360 pages. BIC Classification: DSB; HBJD1; HBLL. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 210 x 140. .
