Four I had forgotten: _Warrenpoint_ by Denis Donoghue. Memoirs of youth, beautifully written. _The Great Melody: A Thematic Biography of Edmund Burke_ by Conor Cruise O'Brien. _Autobiographies_ by W. B. Yeats. This was I think the first time reading it through, though 25 years ago I read a fair bit in a housemate's copy. There are sentences that you will want to reread to see how he does it. And in the art of payback, Yeats on George Moore makes Hemingway on Fitzgerald/Ford/Stein/etc look amateurish. _The Italians_ by Luigi Barzini.
