FRAGMENTS OF A LIFE STORY
THE COLLECTED SHORT WRITINGS OF DENTON WELCH
MAURICE DENTON WELCH TRAINED AT THE GOLDSMITH SCHOOL OF ART, FOR HIS
FIRST AMBITION WAS TO BE A PAINTER. HOWEVER, HIS TRAINING WAS CUT SHORT
AT THE AGE OF TWENTY WHEN HE WAS KNOCKED OFF HIS BICYCLE. THE ACCIDENT,
FROM WHICH HE NEVER FULLY RECOVERED, DROVE HIM IN UPON THE RESOURCES OF
HIS
IMAGINATION, AND IN 1941 A NEW, LITERARY CAREER WAS LAUNCHED WITH THE
PUBLICATION IN HORIZON OF AN ACCOUNT OF A MEETING SIX YEARS PREVIOUSLY
WITH WALTER SICKERT. BETWEEN 1942 AND HIS DEATH IN 1948, AT THE AGE OF
THIRTY-THREE, IN ADDITION TO PRODUCING PAINTINGS OF STARTLING
ORIGINALITY AND BEAUTY HE WENT ON TO
WRITE THREE NOVELS, 200,000 WORDS OF JOURNALS, SOME SIXTY SHORT STORIES
AND FRAGMENTS AND A LARGE NUMBER OF POEMS. HIS ASTONISHING ACHIEVEMENT
WAS SUMMED UP A YEAR AFTER HIS DEATH BY JOHN LEHMANN, WHEN HE WROTE IN
THE PENGUIN NEW WRITING, DENTON WELCH WAS LUCKY IN FINDING THE SUCCESS
HE
NEEDED TO DEVELOP HIS GREAT GIFTS WITH THE PUBLICATION OF HIS FIRST
BOOK; BUT UNLUCKY IN MEETING WITH AN ACCIDENT THAT NOT ONLY EVENTUALLY
KILLED HIM BUT KEPT HIS EXPERIENCE WITHIN CERTAIN NARROW LIMITS. THE
DANGER IN HIS CASE IS THAT AN OFTEN REPEATED PATTERN UNDERLYING HIS
STORIES SHOULD COME TO
BE CONSIDERED AS HIS ESSENTIAL TERRITORY AND CONTRIBUTION: LET US
REMEMBER, RATHER, THE ASTONISHING FEELING FOR WORDS, THE INCREDIBLY
SENSITIVE RESPONSE TO ATMOSPHERE, THE RAPIDLY GROWING SUBTLETY OF
CHARACTERIZATION WHICH, UNDER OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES, WITH NORMAL
OPPORTUNITIES, MIGHT HAVE BROUGHT
WITHIN HIS POWER A RANGE OF ACHIEVEMENT AS GREAT AND DIVERSE AS ANY
MATURE MASTER OF THIS CENTURY. TWO OF DENTON WELCH S NOVELS, MAIDEN
VOYAGE AND A VOICE THROUGH A CLOUD, TOGETHER WITH THE JOURNALS OF DENTON
WELCH AND THE BIOGRAPHY
DENTON WELCH: THE MAKING OF A WRITER BY MICHAEL DE-LA-NOY ARE ALL
PUBLISHED IN PENGUIN.
MICHAEL DE-LA-NOY WAS BORN IN HESSLE, YORKSHIRE, AND EDUCATED AT BEDFORD
SCHOOL. HE SPENT SOME YEARS AS A REPORTER AND FEATURE WRITER, AND IN
1983 PUBLISHED HIS FIRST BIOGRAPHY, ELGAR: THE MAN. THIS &AS FOLLOWED IN
1984, TO WIDE CRITI CAL ACCLAIM, BY DENTON WELCH: THE MAKING OF A WRITER
(VIKING
AND PENGUIN). HE IS ALSO THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNALS OF DENTON WELCH. HE
CONTRIBUTES REVIEWS TO BOOKS & BOOKMEN AND THE SPECTATOR. HIS MOST
RECENT BOOK IS THE HONOURS SYSTEM.
