Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. Hardback Book and Dust Jacket condition: Very Good almost as new. The author Martyn Goff was born in 1923, the son of a Russian fur dealer who had emigrated to London and established himself with great success. As a youth, Goff read prodigiously, and at 19 he was offered a plac…e at Oxford to read English, but he joined the RAF and served in the Second World War instead. After the war, at age 22, Goff decided to become a bookseller: in 1946, he opened his first shop and before long opened others. Goff published his first novel, The Plaster Fabric, in 1957, at a time when homosexuality was still illegal in Britain and authors who wrote openly about it could find themselves prosecuted. However, the book earned a rave review from the popular poet and critic John Betjeman, and, as Goff has said, 'After that, the authorities could hardly condemn it.' He went on to publish several other novels; three of these--The Youngest Director (1961), Indecent Assault (1967) and Tar and Cement (1988)dealt with gay themes. He has also published a number of non-fiction works, including books on collecting vinyl records. Goff is credited by many as one of the most significant figures in modern British fiction for his involvement with the Booker Prize, which he helped to create and oversaw for its first 36 years. Little noticed and even jeered at in its early years, the Booker under Goff's chairmanship grew into one of the world's major literary awards, attracting an annual media frenzy and guaranteeing huge sales for winners and shortlisted novels. As Goff approached retirement in 2002, John Sutherland wrote in The Guardian: 'The current health of English fiction can be explained in two words: Martyn Goff.' Martyn Goff lives in London with his partner, Rubio Tapani Lindroos; the two met in the late 1960s after the latter, then a student, wrote a fan letter to the author after reading The Youngest Director. Mr Goff's authority makes his "Record Choice" an excellent guide to the best recordings available, both musically and financially; and, as a stylist writing on a subject he loves, presents a book that is a please to read for itself alone. 152pp.
