From the blurb - "Rupert Brooke is perhaps the only legendary figure of the early twentieth century who has so far remained without a full-length biography. The short memoir by Edward Marsh introducing the first collected edition of the poems in 1918 has for long been acknowledged as little more than a preliminary sketch. It was natural that Christopher Hassall should turn his attention to Marsh's friend as a sequel to his Life of Edward Marsh, awarded the James Tait Black Memorial Prize for 1959. As one of Brooke's three Literary Trustees he had special advantages for the task, which he completed and revised shortly before his untimely death in April 1963. The material available on Rupert Brooke, which included a large collecttion of letters made by Sir Geoffrey Keynes, reveals a man far more complex and actively involved in the movements of his time than has been inferred from the current image of the young Apollo. He emerges as a wit, a scholar deeply read, a devoted partisan of the Socialist movement, -a focal point of more than one aspect of the antiVictorian revolt, and the protagonist in a passionate misadventure which gives him almost tragic stature. The popular legend has not been 'exploded' so much as set in its human context of struggle, perplexity and suffering, and thereby given perspective and enhanced. In Yeats's words: 'There is always a living face behind the mask.'

Lamo nt Williams, recently released from prison and working as a hospi tal janitor, strikes up an unlikely friendship with a patient, an elderly Jewish Holocaust survivor who starts to tell him of his extraordinary past. Meanwhile Adam Zignelik, the son of a promine nt Jewish civil rights lawyer, is facing a personal crisis: almos t 40-years-old, his long-term relationship is faltering and his a cademic career has stalled. It's only when one of his late father 's closest friends, the civil rights activist William McCray, sug gests a promising research topic that the possibility of some kin d of redemption arises.Dealing with memory, racism and the human capacity for guilt, resilience, heroism, and unexpected kindness, The Street Sweeper spans over fifty years, and ranges from New Y ork to Melbourne, Chicago, Warsaw and Auschwitz, as these two ver y different paths - Adam's and Lamont's - lead to one greater sto ry. ., Faber & Faber, 2012, 3, Boston: Faber & Faber Limited, 1994. a solid copy; ---------- SATISFACTION GUARANTEED --------- FAST, COURTEOUS SERVICE ------ ALL DUSTJACKETS ARE COVERED WITH NEW CLEAR MYLAR PROTECTOR -----.
