Henry Moore: Writings and Conversations

"For both admirers and students of Henry Moore's work, this book will be a blessing. Moore's humanity and intelligence make this compendium a plea-sure to dip into as well as scholarly and comprehensive."—Roger Berthoud, author of The Life of Henry Moore

"Alan Wilkinson has trawled the rich material with exemplary thoroughness. . .. The nature and purpose of Moore's writing is illuminated. The introduction reflects Wilkinson's long friendship with Moore, and the commentary and notes testify to a remarkable knowledge of the artist's work, his circle and his ideas."—Sir Alan Bowness, editor of the Henry Moore Complete Sculpture Series
