Anthony Powell: A Dance To The Music Of Time

After my disappointing with Proust and his lost time, I recently came upon a volume of Anthony Powell's A Dance to the Music of Time. The Dance is a set of 12 related novels set in England from before WWI through WWII. I started in the middle with #6. Now I am going back to the beginning and am about to embark on #1.

Does anyone here have any comments of Powell?

No, but a couple of months back, there was an article by Tariq Ali on rereading A Dance To The Music Of Time in the Guardian. You can read it here.

Thank you, Stewart. I read the review with interest. I'm going to dance with Powell to the music of time. Let's hope I can keep stepping for the entire 12 books.

I haven't got far yet, but I intend to keep going on the strength of the mini series a few years ago on the telly, which was brilliant.
