תיאור
pIThe Tale or Mr. Peter BrownI is a story by Vita SackvilleWest. While she is most widely recognized as the lover of English novelist Virginia Woolf SackvilleWest was a popular and gifted poet playwright and novelist in her own right. A prominent lesbian and bohemian figure SackvilleWest was also the daughter of an English Baron granting her a unique and often divided perspective on life in the twentieth century. IThe Tale of Mr. Peter BrownI is a tale of mystery romance and loneliness. He let his gaze dwell on me as he passed let it dwell on me quite perceptibly quite definitely with an air of curious speculation a hesitation almost an appeal and I thought he was about to speak but instead of that he crushed his hat an old black wideawake down over his strange white hair and hurrying resolutely on towards the swingdoors of the restaurant he passed out and was lost in the London night. Mr. Peter Brown is a man with secrets. The next time he encounters the narrator he shares the story of his life. Formerly homeless he was taken in by his friends a married couple who were generous enough to give him food and shelter. As he spends more and more time with them he begins to observe their unhappiness how the wife not only fears her husband but seems to disdain him. Soon he begins an illicit affair making love to his friend while her husband is away on business. Tragic and sinister IThe Tale of Mr. Peter BrownI is a story of human desire. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript this edition of Vita SackvilleWests IThe Tale of Mr. Peter BrownI is a classic of English literature reimagined for modern readers.p
