The Assassin's Cloak

An Anthology of the World's Greatest Diarists

Ed. Alan Taylor , Ed. Irene Taylor

Beginning on 1 January with entries from Pepys, Boswell and Walter Scott, this volume pays tribute to ‘the most intimate of literary forms’. For each day of the year, it offers glimpses into the lives of figures including Dorothy Wordsworth, Andy Warhol and Noël Coward, noting their personal plans, historic moments, or in some cases both in one: ‘Germany has declared war on Russia. – Swimming in the afternoon’, Franz Kafka, 2 August 1914.
