Book
Soft cover. Condition: Good. Wrappers. Spine darkened and rubbed, covers a little marked, edges of early pages slightly stained; somewhat cocked. First Penguin edition (Work Suspended and other stories first published by Chapman & Hall 1943, Scott-King's Modern Europe 1946); with the ownership inscription and few marginal marks of Alan Bell, Sunderland. Alan Scott Bell (1942-2018), librarian, for many years the custodian of Evelyn Waugh's incoming correspondence, was commissioned to write a biography of Waugh in the 1980s, but in the 1990s ceded the role to Selina Hastings. For the many writers on Waugh since, he remained an invaluable consultant; for literary editors, a willing and authoritative reviewer. He wrote a life of Sydney Smith, sometime Rector of Combe Florey, later Waugh's home village, and he edited the selected letters of Waugh's great-great-grandfather the judge Lord Cockburn. He was an adviser to Oxford University Press's "Complete Edition" of Evelyn Waugh and, with Alexander Waugh, co-editor of its volume 30, Personal Writings 1903-1921: precocious Waughs (2017).
