Description
The tale of E.F. Fred Benson, his private life, his comic genius, his social world. Masters focuses especially on his family: the father who proposed to a girl of 13, the mother who fled to the love of women and the eccentric children - Arthur, Master of Trinity, novelist and depressive; the feminist scholar Maggie, driven to suicidal madness; Hugh, best-selling novelist and Roman Catholic Cardinal. Fred, a beacon of apparent sanity, took refuge in passionate male friendships and humour, creating the hilarious worlds of Mapp and Lucia, Mr Ames and Secret Lives , and writing memoirs of his circle, which ranged from Gladstone to Oscar Wilde, Maggie Asquith to Henry James.
