W.J. Locke : [unknown]

'as an office boy, Pritchett tried to read widely and dreamt of an escape to Bohemia. But his knowledge of the Latin Quarter was gleaned not from Flaubert, only from third-raters like George du Maurier, W.J. Locke, and Hilaire Belloc'.

Century: 1900-1945     Reader/Listener/Group: Victor Sawdon Pritchett      Print: Book

  

W.J. Locke : [?] The Usurper

'6th January 1929. After tea Mrs Webster started knitting a jumper and we ?boys? read. My literature was a book by W. J. Locke, the title of which slips my mind (a fair index to the books worth), but I think it was ?The outcast?.'

Century: 1900-1945     Reader/Listener/Group: Gerald Moore      Print: Book
