Descripción

My Life and Loves is the highlycharged, erotic autobiography of Frank Harris, an Irish writer and editor who founded Pearson's Magazine in the United States.The bookremains a landmark in erotic literature, as relevant and provocative today as it was when first privately printed in Paris. As published privately by Harris between 1922 and 1927, and by Jack Kahane's Obelisk Press in 1931, the work consisted of four volumes, illustrated with many drawings and photographs of women. Many contemporary and historic figures are discussed frequently in the book, such as Lord Salisbury, Byron Caldwell Smith, Algernon Charles Swinburne, Oscar Wilde, and many others. In this unexpurgated chronicle, we come to see Frank Harris in all his glory. This is the tale of one of the great editors of his day, a man of vision, vanity, and ambition who gave many writers, including H. G. Wells, George Bernard Shaw, and Stephen Crane, their early opportunities and recognition.
