Orson Welles

The first of a proposed two-volume biography, this book takes Welles to the ripe old age of 26, when he had just completed Citizen Kane . As Simon Callow says in his preface, I have tried to put [Welles] back into the context from which he wrenched himself.... Cleaning the canvas, as it were, I have aimed to reveal the surrounding figures and Welles`s connection with them. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
