Quicksands by Sybille Bedford
Showing how history imprints itself on private lives, this memoir presents the author's sensuous, harrowing, and altogether remarkable life. It moves from Berlin during the Great War to the artists' set on the Cote d'Azur, through lovers, mentors, seducers and friends, and from genteel yet shabby poverty to relative comfort in London's Chelsea.
Sybille Bedford was born in Germany in 1911 and was brought up in Italy, England and France. In 1989 her novel Jigsaw was shortlisted for the Booker Prize. She has published eight other books and lives in London.
