W. N. P. BARBELLION.. By Richmond H. Ile113-ar. (Leonard
Parsons. (3s. net.) - -
Tim introspection, confessions, and comments upon life of "W. N. P. Barbellion " (Bruce Frederick Cummings) are by no means forgotten ; he will continue to hold a place amongst those diarists who talk mainly to themselves and therefore expose themselves frankly and completely. Mr. Hellyar's work is not much more than a running commentary- upon Barbellion's books and articles ; but within its limits it is readable and intelligent.
