Description
A personal and humorous account of Arthur Machen's experiences at a gathering of distinguished guests. In this collection of autobiographical essays, Machen recounts his time among explorers, ambassadors, judges, and other notable figures, including the author who brought laughter to the world since Dickens' passing.
One evening, Machen was praised by a Persian guest for his translation of Margaret of Navarre's "Heptameron", a gesture that warmed his heart and reminded him of the value of gratitude in life. This book offers a unique glimpse into Machen's life and thoughts, as he shares stories from his time among these remarkable individuals.
