Humphrey Carpenterʻs "Brideshead Generation Evelyn Waugh and his Friends"

P. G. Wodehouse

Because when we were searching for lacking 'Wodehouses' in the collection in secondhand bookshops, Evelyn Waugh always was the adjacent/adjoining author on the shelf.

"I hope I never read the last of (Evelyn) Waugh." -- John Bass

when I first heard John say this, (it was of course after Waughʻs death), I thought that it would be more of a compliment to say "I intend to read ALL of Waugh." Thinking it over,
I realized that "I hope I never read the last..." was a much greater compliment: he was wishing that there would ALWAYS be another Waugh forthcoming.

I Hope I never - Split Enz ('80)

.. and not because of the rest of the lyrics.

Thornton Wilderʻs* "Heavenʻs my
Destination"#

*Met author.

#a title that has long been on my TBR list; but then the "list" exists not as a physical pile or on paper, but only in my head.

Only Visiting This Planet

* That''s a famous one, did you met all that authors in your function as librarian?

"met . . . in your function as librarian?" (374)

I think the outstanding of the authors I have met was Robert Lowell (1917-1977). I met him about 1955-56, during my time as a Boston University librarian, but I didn't meet him as a user of the library. He was very publicized and,
hearing that he was at B. U., I went to a sort of informal office hours with him. The most memorable thing he said was, concerning the Hungarian Revolution, "No one wants a war with Russia, but it makes you wish you could
DO something!"
I also met another poet, Gregory Corso (1930-2001) during those years -- in Greater Boston, but not in the library. Very affable and outgoing guy, but his listeners were
likely to disagree with him. One thing I agreed with him on: his saying that people should stop talking about "RIGHT & Wrong", and talk more about "GOOD and Wrong".
I met Thornton Wilder through the Harvard Classical Club, where he was a guest speaker in the early 1950s.
