About the book >.>.> The Unknowable Gurdjieff Gurdjieff has had a profound influence on many people in our time in numerous cases transforming their lives and in this book Margaret Anderson seeks to explain the nature of this influence. With wit and fervour she writes from intimate knowledge of Gurdjieff himself and of those most intimately associated with him including A. R. Orage and P. D. Ouspensky. On and off from 1924 until the war Miss Anderson spent studying with Gurdjieff; and then from 1948 until his death almost daily. The poet William Carlos Williams found The Fiery Furnace a previous autobiographical volume by Margaret Anderson of supreme interest- the record of ‘a flaming spirit that attacked and won many a fine victory for art and the good life. The present book is written in the same spirit and with even deeper faith. (LL)
