About this product

Product Information

Anthony Powell's universally acclaimed epic creates a rich panorama of twentieth-century London. 'He is, as Proust was before him, the great literary chronicler of his culture in his time.' GUARDIAN 'A Dance to the Music of Time' is universally acknowledged as one of the great works of English literature. Reissued now in this definitive edition, it stands ready to delight and entrance a new generation of readers. In this first volume, Nick Jenkins is introduced to the ebbs and flows of life at boarding school in the 1920s, spent in the company of his friends- Peter Templer, Charles Stringham, and Kenneth Widmerpool. Though their days are filled with visits from relatives and boyish pranks, usually at the expense of their housemaster Le Bas, a disastrous trip in Templer's car threatens their new friendship. As the school year comes to a close, the young men are faced with the prospects of adulthood, and with finding their place in the world.

  • An excellent first volume in the "Dance to the Music of Time" saga

    This first volume of Anthony Powell's "Dance to the Music of Time" covers the schooldays and university career of the protagonist, Nick Jenkins. We also meet a variety of intersting characters - Charles Stringham, Peter Templer, Kenneth Widmerpool, Sillery, Quiggin et al. . There is much comedy, some of it in the style of P.G. Wodehouse, for example, the "incident involving Stripling and Farebrother's hat box and the "Braddock alias Thorne" joke played on housemaster Le Bas. Powell's amusing descriptive powers are impressive (e.g. his description of the taxi, p. 122). There is also a wistful element in the passing of time and the gradual loss of old friends and acquaintances.
