Product Information
In the years following the Second World War, there didn't seem much to smile about, but as JB Priestley illustrated in the classic 1949 Delight , there are many joys to be found in even the simplest things. This charming book comprises a series of short essays, which all depict a simple pleasure - the smallest things in life that Priestley delighted in at that bleak time - a notion that chimes perfectly with the current national mood. Just some of the simple things Priestley enjoyed include; fountains; a walk in a pine wood; a new box of matches; Sunday papers in the country; reading in bed about foul weather; suddenly doing nothing and waking to smell bacon. A very personal book, it is superbly written and very readable with Priestley's sense of humor and literary flare in evidence on every page. Each self-contained essay is a joy to read and will no doubt bring a little 'delight' to the reader - just as Priestley originally intended sixty years ago. In 'timeless mornings' Priestley muses, 'There is one kind of morning in early summer that is for me very special, the most delightful of all mornings. The sun is up and blazing somewhere but not visible yet down here, where there is a lot of gold mist about and the birds are singing from lost thickets.' The new 60th anniversary edition of Delight contains the full, unabridged text of over one hundred of Priestley's personal joys and pleasures, and includes an introduction written by Priestley's son, Tom. It will be beautifully designed and printed, making an ideal gift book. 2009 - Priestley's Year - 2009 not only marks the 25th anniversary of Priestley's death, but also a great revival of interest in his work. Three of his plays; When we are Married , An Inspector Calls and Time and the Conways (whose initial run had to be extended), have been performing to capacity houses and receiving rapturous responses from audience and critics alike, at the National Theater, London and on UK-wide tours. Recent national press feature articles have confirmed the status of Priestley's genius. Delight follows on the heels of the publication this year of his classic travelogue English Journey , which is being backed by national media coverage. This 'renaissance' of Priestley provides a superb, high profile platform for the launch of Delight , which is priced and packaged for the discerning Christmas gift buyer. Delight has been selected by Waterstone's to be a central element in its high profile annual charity campaign to support Dyslexia Action and the London Library. A major boost to interest in Priestley's work.

It was a couple of days later than promised but I think this was a PO problem rather than the seller. A good price and as described. When the seller was contacted as the book had not arrived they immediately replied - could not fault. Would use this seller again.

Comms are excellent and they respond quickly and make a real effort to resolve issues. Pricing is good and descriptions accurate and fair. Postage is free so there won't be any extra packing but I've never had a problem with items damaged in transit.
