«The Horse's Mouth» is the comic novel by Joyce Cary, published by Thistle Publishing in paperback (464 pages, in English).
The novel follows Gulley Jimson, a penniless London painter who roams the city in search of money and inspiration. Cary portrays an artist wholly devoted to his intuition, indifferent to social conventions and able to move from brilliance to disaster with the same energy.
The work is the third instalment of The First Trilogy, completed by Herself Surprised and To Be a Pilgrim. The novel was adapted into a film with Alec Guinness in the lead role.
Readers of classic and literary fiction who appreciate humour, eccentric characters and artistic London will find here a standout title.
Arthur Joyce Lunel Cary, known as Joyce Cary, was an Anglo-Irish novelist and colonial official. His most notable novels include Mister Johnson and The Horse's Mouth.
