a way of lifesavage messiah
In the 1920s Jim Ede acquired the greater part of the estate of Sophie Brzeska. Apart from a wealth of Gaudier-Brzeska's drawings and sculptures which would form the basis of the Kettle's Yard collection, it included Sophie's diaries and Gaudier's letters to her.
These writings are quoted extensively in Savage Messiah, Jim Ede's biography of Gaudier-Brzeska, first published in 1931 and still one of the liveliest and most valuable sources on Gaudier's brief but extraordinary career.
