A PART OF THE MAIN

Richard Collingwood - Selby  

Autor: Richard Collingwood - Selby

“A Part of the Main” is an agile, clear, and stimulating narrative in which Mr. Richard Collingwood-Selby opens the doors to his private life to recount crucial episodes, from his birth to the present day. He describes how he experienced such influential events as the Second World War and a radical and fortuitous move to another country, which later led him to found the iconic Redland School in Chile — undoubtedly his greatest achievement.

Written in impeccable English, free from external influences, it is an easy-to-read text that reveals previously unknown aspects of this remarkable figure, such as his relationship with his parents and the important places he lived, his beliefs and tastes, his loves, and his successes and failures — all within an enriching and reflective context. 

It is an inspiring story that introduces us to a man over 90 years old, possessing outstanding intelligence and talent, with great empathy for his surroundings and fellow human beings, a defender of freedom in every sense, and with a focus on values that inspire all ages. The book's title, a line from John Donne's poem "No Man Is an Island," perfectly reflects these ideas and reinforces the concept that each and every one of us is part of humanity and is affected by what happens to others; or, as its author often preached to the students of Redland School, "we are all in the same boat."
