Summary: Odd-ball Erudite Grab-bag
Comment: Imagine a Victorian Robert Graves who, akin to the method used in Goodbye to All of That, decided to write an eccentric autobiography stuffed to the brim with crumbling family manses, ghosts, family eccentrics (the biggest being the author) and upper-crust cocktail chatter--that's Hare. He's the seedy gentleman bachelor who is definitely from the same cast as Oscar Wilde (minus the wife and two children). Apparently, Hare was originally known for his travel writings but now all that's left of him is just this one (extremely entertaining) autobiography. If one enjoyed the structure of Goodbye to All of That, this book will definitely be a treat.
