Charles Morgan will have no reason to complain that his merits as a writer have failed to secure official recognition. In 1930 he was awarded the Femina Vie Heureuse Prize for “Portrait in a Mirror” and in 1933 the Hawthornden Prize for “The Fountain.” To these trophies has now been added the James Tait Black Memorial Prize, his latest work, “The Voyage,” having been adjudged by the Professor of Literature at Edinburgh University to be the best novel published during 1940. The corresponding award for the best biography appearing during the same period has gone to Hilda Prescott for “Spanish Tudor.”
