A Toast to Ava Gardner is a collection of autobiographical stories written by Robert Graves between 1924 and 1969. Divided into three sections, these stories offer a peculiar journey through the author's life, from the dark beginnings of his youth to the luminous peak of his maturity. Some of the stories, such as "Kill them, kill them", "The Whitaker blacks" or the one that gives the volume its title, "A Toast to Ava Gardner", stand out for their implausibility and peculiarity.
Robert Ranke Graves, whose second name is sometimes given as von Ranke, was an English poet, novelist and critic. His father was Alfred Perceval Graves, a celebrated Irish poet and figure in the Gaelic revival; they were both Celticists and students of Irish mythology.
