Description

This volume includes three famous memoirs - Scouse Mouse, Rum, Bum & Concertina, and Owning Up, with a new introduction by the author. Scouse Mouse is a funny and often touching story of his childhood in the 1930s in a middle-class family in Liverpool. Rum, Bum & Concertina, the naval version of wine, women, and song, describes Melly's National Service as one of the most unlikely sailors. He becomes an anarchist and a lover of Surrealist Art, self-taught in the wildest paths of love. After being discharged, he comes to London to work in an art gallery, and in Owning Up he describes how he comes into contact with the world of jazz revival, enjoying an endless series of pubs, clubs, cheap lodgings, and cafes, surrounded by a mad variety of musicians, crazies, and ancient eccentrics. Pages: 608, Dimensions: 12.9x12.9cm.
