The author and critic
Cyril Connolly (1903-74) believed that the true function of a writer was to produce a masterpiece. His own masterpiece was himself. For almost 50 years, he contrived that everything he said and did should excite the interest of the London literary world. And even now his memory haunts old friends such as Lord Annan, Sir Stephen Spender ,
Sir Alfred Ayer , Peter Quennell and A. L. Rowse.
With their help Michael Barber considers Connolly's masterpiece.
