Om författaren
Frank Arthur Swinnerton (1884–1982) was an English novelist, literary critic, biographer, and essayist. Upon his death he was one of the last links to such nineteenth-century writers as H. G. Wells, John Galsworthy, and Arnold Bennett. He considered Harvest Comedy and The Georgian Literary Scene to be his best books, but felt that neither had any lasting importance—as he thought himself lazy!
