The Military Philosophers. A dance on the music of time, volume 9.
William Heinemann, London.1968. First edition. First impression. Stated "First Published 1968" on the copyright page. Hardcover. Red cloth binding with spine lettered in gilt in black title block. With dust jacket. Not price clipped. Priced 25s NET. 243 pp. 13 x19,5 x 2,75 cm. 334 gr. Wrapper design by Broom Lynne. ISBN-10 0-434-59916-6. Part six of 'A dance to the music of time', a twelve-novel cycle. Powell’s monumental series, inspired by Poussin’s painting of the same name. The story is an often comic examination of movements and manners, power and passivity in English political, cultural and military life in the mid 20th century. "The words 'twelve-novel cycle' don’t exactly inspire readerly zeal in most people, but once you catch the rhythm of Powell’s dodecahedral masterpiece it’s hard to put it down. Beginning in the 1920 s, A Dance to the Music of Time follows the lives of a group of English friends and acquaintances as they make their various ways through life: meeting and parting, succeeding and failing, loving and hating, living and dying. There is ample room for both comedy and tragedy in this capacious, large-hearted work, but Powell’s real triumph is the way he catches the rhythm of fate itself, the way it brings people together, only to spin them apart, then reunite them later as near-strangers, transformed in unexpected ways by the intervening years." (Time 100). The ninth volume in the Dance to the Music of Time series featuring the now-famous characters from the earlier novels: Nick Jenkins, the narrator, Pennistone, Sonny Farebrother, and of course, the redoubtable Widmerpool. This is the last of the war trilogy.
