described in its Preface an earlier book, Blindfold Games, as<br >being only incidentally autobiography, but more accurately<br >"the raw material out of which I began to write poetry". The<br >same principle applies here, at least as far as the autobio-<br >graphical part is concerned. Coastwise Lights turns out mainly to<br >be about friends - painters and writers - who were close to me<br >and who have since died. I had not intended the book to take<br >such a shape, but there it is.<br > Blindfold Games began in India and ended, after describing a<br >Sussex adolescence, Oxford and five years in the Navy, in<br >occupied Germany. It was about coming to terms with war and<br > a hunger for writing replacing a passion for cricket.<br > The present volume takes the story from x 947 to 1978, when I<br >returned to London after living in Sussex for twenty-five years.<br >During most of this time I was working for the Observer, as well<br > taking over the London Magazine in x 961 and starting up as a<br > publisher in I965. As in BlindJbld Games I have used poems<br > written at the time as illustrations and to fill in a few gaps. Some<br > late to the text, others to relationships or derive from working<br >i]ourneys in Europe, Australia, Africa and the Caribbean.<br >
