“Book Descriptions: Six years in six months, or six months in six years -- Autumn and Spring Annals is a diary in verse, each day crystalized -- in beauty, worry, dread and profundity. Quentin S. Crisp, a writer of timeless stature, lays his heart bare in a book that is at once haunting and enriching and which, while indicting the filth of the sublunary world, surges with unexpected happinesses and unmistakable life.” DRIVE
