Anotace knihy

'This is a book about the magazines I have edited. I have written it in order to describe what they were like, and what literary journalism was like, and to do honour to the writers I worked with'. So begins Karl Miller's understated, droll and lucid retrospect of English post-war literary culture. "Dark Horses" is the vade mecum and memoir of an eminent literary critic and teacher, who also edited several of the most influential literary magazines of his time, and who founded the most influential literary journal of our time, the "London Review of Books". It is the testament of a watchful and undeceived intelligence, of wide and sometimes surprising sympathies, as observant about football as about politics and letters. In its feeling for outsiders as well as its understanding of insiders, "Dark Horses" fulfills the promises of its title. 'Frank Kermode has written of 'the good writing that cannot help eliminating truth from autobiography'. Karl Miller comes marvellously close to bringing the two together' - "Financial Times". 'Miller's prose is elegant, spare and unforced. He has the true art of the memoirist' - Jonathan Bate.
