A new selection of Llewelyn Powys' essays, "A Struggle for Life" attempts to illustrate both the evolution of the author's thought and writing and the incredible breadth and variety of his interests. At once personal and universal, the twenty-eight pieces contained in this volume tackle themes such as happiness and nature and celebrate rationalism as an alternative to dogma and religion. With locales ranging from colonial Africa to the author's native Dorset, Llewelyn Powys' essays combine poignancy and sincerity with irony and subversiveness, and should cement his reputation as one of his generation's finest stylists, alongside his brothers William Cowper Powys and T.F. Powys.
