“Henry Green (1905-1973) was once described by W. H. Auden as ‘the finest living English novelist.’  Although his work was unjustly neglected for a number of years, he is now established as one of the most significant writers of his time, ‘a liberatingly ingenuous voice’ (in the words of John Updike) whose novels are recognized as works of genius.

“This book, which gat6hers together a selection of his uncollected writings, is therefore a literary event of considerable importance, and a cause for celebration.  Including a number of stories never before published, written during the 20s and 30s ..., it also features a highly entertaining account of Henry Green’s service in the London Fire Brigade during WWII; a shorty play written in the 1950s; and a selection of his journalism, including a group of revealing articles about the craft of writing, a marvelous evocation of Venice, a description of falling in love, reviews which illuminate Henry Green’s literary enthusiasms and the entertaining interview with Terry Southern for Paris Review…

“Surviving has an introduction by John Updike, long an admirer of Green, and is edited by Green’s grandson, the novelist Matthew Yorke.  Henry Green’s son, Sebastian Yorke, has written a biographical memoir which forms an afterword, and provides an unforgettable picture of this elusive and remarkable man.”  - Front panel of the book’s dust jacket.
