<p>On the strength of novels such as <i>Futility</i> and <i>The Polyglots</i>, William Gerhardie was hailed as the most brilliant writer of the 1920s, admired by Graham Greene, Evelyn Waugh, Olivia Manning and many others.

Humphrey Carpenter, <i>Sunday Times</i><br><br>''One of the most important literary lives of the century.'' Sean French, <i>New Statesman</i><br><br>''As engrossing as a well-packed novel.''
