The Modern Movement is the first of two volumes of Cyril Connolly's Selected Works, edited by his son Matthew Connolly. It features the best of his compendious critical output and spans the whole of his career - from his early thoughts on film, through to his central concern, the Modernists: Auden, Beckett, Camus, Dylan Thomas and many others. Including an illuminating forward by William Boyd. The Modern Movement exemplifies the penetrating mind and questing spirit of a man who had interesting and provocative views on everyone and everything literary.
