Biography

A full-scale biography by the brilliant English novelist, an intimate friend of the Huxleys through four decades. She re-creates not only the private Huxley and the literary Huxley but the entire intellectual and social era to which he was central. One of the great classic English biographies...as forbidding to competitors as Boswell's life of Johnson. --Philip Hensher, Spectator
