He published poetry in periodicals from the age of 16. He served as a Captain in the Kings Own Scottish Borderers during the First World War and from the trenches wrote trenchant literary criticism, humorous war poetry and war serials. Wounded out, working at the War Office he continued to contribute short stories for TS Eliot's Criterion, CK Chesterton's New Witness and JC Squire's London Mercury. Later as an editor on The Times, he translated the Song of Roland and Beowulf and started on Marcel Proust's Remembrance of Things Past, a work that was to make him famous. Working as a spy in Italy from 1923, he translated Proust, Stendhal, Abelard and Eloise and much of Pirandello. He died in Rome in 1930.
