A Week in Literary HistoryJune 28th, 2002 In 1908, evocative English travel writer Norman Lewis (A Goddess in the Stones, 1991) is born in Forty Hill, North London.
Lewis wrote novels all his long life, but he will be remembered for his vivid travelogues, in which he described in telling detail his voyages in Europe and Asia. His autobiographical writings, also imbued with his wanderings, paint a portrait of the ideal traveler: curious, sympathetic, and brave. Graham Greene called Lewis “one of the best writers, not of any particular decade, but of our century.” Suggested Reading Travel Spanish Adventure, 1935. Sand and Sea in Arabia, 1938.
