"Ms. Drabble's...skills as a novelist bring a real solidity to the fascinating story of Wilson's (life). -- Peter Parker, The New York Times Book Review
"Angus Wilson (1913-1991) led one of the most remarkable and uncharted lives in the annals of 20th-century literature. In 1949, he stunned the literary community with a short story collection, The Wrong Set, which was shortly followed by Hemlock and After, The Middle Age of Mrs. Eliot, The Old Men at the Zoo, among others, and his most famous and enduring novel, Anglo-Saxon Attitudes. Today, Wilson is also admired for his decision to live life as an openly gay man and remembered for gay activism and his lifelong relationship with Tony Garrett. In this vivid and absorbing biography, Margaret Drabble has created a portrait of an artist of enormous courage, a man who confronted challenge to the end.
