Wyndham Lewis

The guy who wrote Tar, and he was, he was a painter.

Oh, Wyndham Lewis.

Wyndham Lewis.

Yeah, Wyndham Lewis, yeah.

He was a really fascinating character who, um, operated between ideologies, especially in, in the interwar period.

Mm-hmm.

Um, the global village is, uh, is a term that Marshall came up with.

He actually kind of stole it from this, uh, British painter and writer, Wyndham Lewis, uh, who wrote in a book called America and cosmic man.

Um, it sounds like a person cause

cosmic man,

I wrote books on T.E. Lawrence, on Malraux.

Wyndham Lewis, Wilson, Fitzgerald, Nabokov, Hemingway, Seamus Heaney Lowell.

I've written books or at least a lot of articles about them.

So then, having known their lives, and in the course of their lives, of course, they connected with some of these other people, which... was not possible to go into when you're doing the life.

Which sources were most revealing in your research?

Well, part of it was the ones that I hadn't worked on so thoroughly.

That is to say, when you're talking about Thomas Mann or T.E. Lawrence or Wyndham Lewis, I mean, I really know them backwards and forwards.

But we were talking a while ago about the Audrey Hepburn and Frank connection.

Review of the Great English Vortex.

One, this is coming out at a time when I would normally have an interview.

That will be coming out tomorrow specifically because it is with Taylor from Antelope Hill and we're talking about their newest book, Paleface by Wyndham Lewis.

And yeah, it doesn't come out until tomorrow, so I didn't want people, we didn't want people flooding the website if they hear it on Thursday night, but it will be out tomorrow and you'll hear the episode tomorrow.

Also, I've partnered with them.
