"Nothing is so cliquy and exclusive as the schoolboy or the schoolboy-mindd Anglo-Saxon of al ages."

- Bernard Berenson,  Rumor and Reflection (1952)

Started reading Rachel Cohen's bio of him, too bad there's no reference of Hugh Trevor-Roper, since I bought a book of collection of letters between those two(they were pretty close friends. And glad I bought when it was cheap; now the Amazon price, even used one, is astronomical lol);

she concentrates on important women in BB's life methink.
