A portrait of one of the twentieth century's most enigmatic literary figures, Malcolm Lowry: Psalms and Songs presents an intimate and multifaceted view of the man behind Under the Volcano, assembled through the eyes of those who knew him and, crucially, through his own remarkable stories. Edited by his widow, Margerie Lowry, this anthology gathers memoirs, tributes, and fictional works to paint a vivid picture of a writer whose turbulent life was as dramatic and haunting as his prose — set against a backdrop of wandering exile, from the fog-bound shores of British Columbia to the sun-scorched Mexican highlands. The collection stands as both a literary monument and a deeply personal act of remembrance, illuminating the themes of self-destruction, redemption, and transcendence that defined Lowry's singular voice. Margerie Lowry's curatorial hand brings together an extraordinary range of perspectives, allowing the reader to witness the author's genius and his demons in equal measure. For those already captivated by Lowry's work, and for those yet to discover it, this volume poses an irresistible question: where does the man end and the myth begin?
