Description
The Element of Lavishness is a charming correspondence between two writers that has brought pleasure to many readers. In 1938, William Maxwell, then twenty-nine years old and acting poetry editor of The New Yorker, invited Sylvia Townsend Warner to send him verse. Miss Warner, forty-four and famous for her novel Lolly Willowes, had recently begun writing stories for the magazine, producing antic and inimitable sketches of English life that Maxwell adored.
The poems were sent, and a remarkable friendship was begun. This correspondence is a testament to the power of creative collaboration and the joy of sharing one's work with others.
