“Flight into Egypt” should’nt be too difficult to track down on the Web since it was published over here by Elek in the late 60’s/early ’70’s. It is amusing in small doses – a mixture of sub-Firbank and Harold Acton. I believe Jullian killed himself in the 1980’s because of some personal scandal.

His Wilde biography is pretty good although rather overshadowed by the Ellmann book. His very camp and (from its description) bizarre novel <em>Flight into Egypt</em> is a book I really need to track down.

And thanks for turning me on to Lorrain and Jullian. I'm quite partial to the symbolists. Splendid is indeed the right word! And thanks for turning me on to Lorrain and Jullian.
