Douglas Day's landmark biography chronicles the full arc of Lowry's extraordinary and self-destructive existence, from his privileged upbringing in England through his years of desperate wandering across Mexico, Canada, and the United States, illuminating the alcoholism, creative genius, and personal chaos that defined his short life.\n\nDay writes with the rigour of a scholar and the sensitivity of a literary admirer, drawing on extensive interviews and unpublished materials to present a portrait that is both unflinching and deeply compassionate. Winner of the National Book Award for Biography in 1974, this work argues compellingly that Lowry's life and art were inseparable — that to understand one is to be forever changed by the other. Readers who enter Lowry's world through these pages may find it impossible to leave.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130602856667,"sku":"2026200009956-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/a6863ca3-07e9-454a-841d-322633f51542.png?v=1786587288","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009956-secondhand-malcolm-lowry-a-biography","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
