5.0 out of 5 stars Muir - Translator. Poet, Dreamer, March 3, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: An Autobiography (Canongate Classic) (Paperback)
One of the best ways to understand the work of Muir is to meet him in this Autobiography. The hardships of his childhood and later life are quickly sketched in; his appreciation of the world as he encountered it in his European travels is sharply delineated, and his generous view of the many thinkers, writers, and teachers he knew gives us a picture not only of them but of Muir himself - a shy but perceptive man, ready to befriend and help.
The book gives us, too, an introduction to Willa Muir, Edwin's wife and collaborator; it is refreshing to read of so happy a marriage!
