Garnett, David (1892–1981), novelist and critic, son of E. and C.
Garnett, and friend and associate of the
Bloomsbury Group. His first short novel,
Lady into Fox (1922), an enigmatic fable about a young wife transformed into a vixen, had a considerable success, and was followed by
A Man in the Zoo (1924), about a thwarted lover who donates himself as a specimen of
Homo Sapiens for exhibition in the zoo;
The Sailor's Return (1925);
Pocahontas: or The Nonpareil of Virginia (1933), a biography; the semi-fictional
Beany-eye (1935); and three volumes of autobiography. Garnett also edited the letters of T. E.
Lawrence (1938), the novels of
Peacock (1948), and his own correspondence with T. H.
White (1968).
