Product Description
1929. Arguments by Kate Stephens and Edited by Gerrit and Mary Caldwell Smith. An attempt to rebuke and refute parts of Harris's scandalous and pornographic multi volume autobiography, My Life and Loves in which he characterized Byron Caldwell Smith unfavorably, according to the latter's relatives. Frank Harris published voluminously and was associated closely with George Bernard Shaw and Oscar Wilde. His four volume autobiography raised issues of obscenity, pornography, and lewdness and was self-published from the South of France, with the intent of escaping American law and Puritanism. ...

Product Description
A more incongruous friendship than the one reflected in this correspondence is hard to imagine. Shaw is now remembered as the leading playwright of his time, and one of era's most memorable wits; Harris has become notorious for his near-pornographic My Life and Loves, and for a humorless (and disintegrating) sense of self-importance. At one time, Harris had been one of the later nineteenth century's most visible literary figures, a friend of such dissimilar people as Lord Randolph Churchill and Oscar Wilde, an editor of the London Evening News at 29, then editor of the Fortnightly Review and the Saturday Review, whose theatre critic Shaw became. Never quite respectable, Harris had been tolerated -even courted- as an amiable vulgarian when he was a rising star. However, his booming voice and four-letter language, his inability to look like anything other than an Albanian highwayman even when dressed in tails, his gluttonous gormandizing and insatiable womanizing, quickly made him a pariah in Edwardian circles as his career began to slip and he began to snatch at shady quick-money opportunities.Through these pages emerge the literary and political life of Edwardian and Georgian England, and wartime American, via Shaw's wit and ebullience and Harris's pomposity and paranoia. ...

Written by his close friend Harris, this biography of Wilde takes us to the deep recesses of his mind and soul. Though Harris is said to have given in to his imagination in recounting some events, in general the book shows his respect and regard for his comrade. He criticizes the harsh treatment meted out to this once-beloved wit stemming from general censure for his personal leanings. Absorbing!
