J. B. Priestley

J.B. Priestley was a British novelist, playwright, broadcaster, and social commentator who was one of the most important cultural figures of twentieth-century Britain. Born in Bradford in 1894, he wrote The Good Companions, An Inspector Calls, and numerous other acclaimed works. Delight is his collection of essays celebrating the small pleasures of everyday life — a warm, wise, and wonderfully written celebration of the things that bring us joy. Priestley's writing combines intelligence with warmth and a deep love of life. Priestley died in 1984. His audiobooks and books offer listeners and readers the warm, wise writing of one of Britain's great literary voices — essays and fiction that celebrate the pleasure of being alive.
