Young Felix (Paperback)

1923. In addition to serving variously as an editor and a drama critic Swinnerton wrote over 30 novels. He also wrote studies of Gissing and Stevenson. Young Felix begins: We have our first glimpse of Felix Hunter at the age of two years. He is sitting alone upon the bottom step of a flight of stairs, watching through the opaque glass panes of a front door the shadows of two bailiffs who vainly knock to be let into the house. One plump finger is held dictatorially in the air, and the baby lips frame a warning.
