Biographical notes:
Roger H.P. Senhouse, the publisher, translator, and bibliophile, was born in 1899. In his early twenties he became known in London literary circles as a member of the Bloomsbury circle. In 1936 he was the co-founder of the firm of Secker and Warburg, and applied his wide knowledge of literature mainly to the presentation of foreign authors. His translations were chiefly from French literature, notably the works of Andr Gide and of Colette. He owned a fine personal library at Rye. He died in 1970.
