"The sheer perfection of the writing is very rare in English since the loosening of standards in Nineteenth Century fiction." .reality is again entrance and translucent with the light of a natural glory behind it.what is more remarkable.one gradually comes to realize that it is about this state of being as such that Read is writing. Read's only novel, a utopian one, a unique blend of reality and fantasy which moves from the English countryside to the South Aerican pampas and then to a mysterious and eternal underground land of caves.

Paperback. The Green Child is the only novel by Herbert Read - the famous English poet, anarchist, and literary critic. First published by New Directions in 1948, it remains a singular work of bewildering imagination and radiance. The author considered it a philosophical myth akin to Plato's cave. Olivero, the former dictator of a South American country, has returned to his native England after faking his own assassination. On a walk he sees, through a cottage window, a green-skinned young girl tied to a chair. He watches in horror as the kidnapper forces the girl to drink lamb's blood from a cup. Olivero rescues the child, and she leads him into unknown realms. A visionary masterpiece filled with green children, quicksand portals, imaginary countries, revolutionary dictators, and subterranean worlds Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
