Elia and the Last Essays of Elia
Edited by Jonathan Bate
Charles Lamb wrote essays under the pseudonym "Elia" in the 1820s. Few have written more evocatively of the past, of childhood, loss, books and plays, and London. This volume, published in the Oxford World's Classics series, contains all the "Elia" essays Lamb collected in book form, including the "Confessions of a Drunkard."
