The Life Of A Long Distance Writer
Published to coincide with his 80th birthday in 2008, this is the authorized biography of Alan Sillitoe, one of England's most celebrated writers. The man behind 'Saturday Night and Sunday Morning' and 'The Loneliness of The Long-Distance Runner' is a fascinating figure who has lived a life as gripping and compelling as his fiction. This book has been written with Sillitoe's close cooperation, as well as access to a substantial archive, including never-before-seen photographs, correspondence with many of his literary peers and, most notably, his close friend Poet Laureate, Ted Hughes.
