Herself surprised av Joyce Cary. Pocket på engelska. Penguin Books.
"Born in Donegal, Ireland, of a Devonshire family long settled in that part, Joyce Cary was given for first name, according to a common anglo-Irish practice, his mothers's surname of Joyce. He was educated at Clifton and Trinity, Oxford, and he also studied art in Edinburgh and Paris. Afterwards he went to the Near East for the war of 1912-13.
Subsequently Mr Cary studied Irish Co-operation under Sir Horace Plunkett, and in 1913 joined the Nigerian Political Service. He fought in the Nigerian Regiment during the Great War and was wounded at Mora Mountain. On returning to political duty, as magistrate and executive officer, he was sent to Borgu, then a very remote district, where he made close acquaintance with primitive native life. His health, however, had never recovered from war service and he was advised to retire from tropical Africa. He then began to write, and his first novel, "Aissa Saved", was published in 1930. His famous novel, "The Horse's Mouth", has been published as a Penguin."
