Anthony Powell

    21 december 1905 – 28 maart 2000

    Anthony Powell was een Engelse romanschrijver die wordt gevierd om zijn inzichtelijke portrettering van de Britse samenleving en de evolutie ervan gedurende de 20e eeuw. Zijn schrijven onderscheidt zich door subtiele ironie, scherpe observatie van de menselijke natuur en meesterlijke weergave van sociale lagen. Powell vangt de vluchtigheid van menselijke relaties en het onverbiddelijke verstrijken van de tijd, vaak met een melancholieke ondertoon. Zijn verhalende aanpak is vloeiend en gedetailleerd, waardoor lezers zich volledig kunnen onderdompelen in de sfeer van zijn wereld en kunnen nadenken over het lot van zijn personages.
