This review is from: Things That Have Interested Me (Collected Works of Arnold Bennett) (Library Binding)
Lots of short essays on all kinds of things. Boy! was he wrong about James Joyce and "Ulysses". Very interesting and at times highly amusing. He says a woman who dresses well should be considered an artist just as much as a painter or musician, for she pleases the eye every day. Memorable for his descriptions of tours of Portugal in February and southern France in September. Would like to do these trips some day. He was really in the hinterland of France. Also interesting is what he has to say about girls after the Great War, and games. Pertinent to the U.S. today. Sort've reminds me of George Jean Nathan, just a little lighter and fluffier. Not quite as biting or wise. Very astute remarks about our judicial system's "guilty until proved innocent" or otherwise.
