Author:Anthony Powell
Anthony Powell's brilliant twelve-novel sequence chronicles the lives of over three hundred characters, and is a unique evocation of life in twentieth-century England. It is unrivalled for its scope, its humour and the enormous pleasure it has given to generations.
Volume 2 contains the second three novels in the sequence: At Lady Molly's; Casanova's Chinese Restaurant; The Kindly Ones
I would rather read Mr Powell than any English novelist now writing
—— Kingsley AmisThere is no other novelist whose work gives so much or such consistent pleasure.
—— TLSI think it is now becoming clear that A Dance to the Music of Time is going to become the greatest modern novel since Ulysses.
—— Clive James
