"I shall be delighted to give you a pair, if you will accept them," he replied, with eager courtesy; "my surety ought certainly to have a pair"; and then he peered at me in his curious, intent way. A moment later, he turned round, and opening his tray, picked out a pair of spectacles and handed them to me.

I intend first of all to prove from Shakespeare's works that he has painted himself twenty times from youth till age at full length: I shall consider and compare these portraits till the outlines of his character are clear and certain; afterwards I shall show how his little vanities and shames idealized the picture, and so present him as he really was, with his imperial intellect and small snobberies; his giant vices and paltry self-deceptions; his sweet gentleness and long martyrdom. I cannot but think that his portrait will thus gain more in truth than it can lose in ideal beauty. Or let me come nearer to my purpose by means of a simile.

Frank Harris' autobiographical book "My Life and Loves" was released in four volumes. The book offers a thorough description of Harris's sexual encounters and love encounters throughout the course of his life, beginning with his early years in Ireland and covering his time in the US and Europe. Each chapter of the book, which is separated into sections, examines a particular connection or experience. Harris describes his interactions with women from many walks of life, including prostitutes, actors, and society ladies, in a direct and sometimes graphic style. Harris also focuses on his personal and philosophical views throughout the book, notably in regard to morality, love, and sex. He contends that having sexual desires is a normal and healthy element of being a person, and that society's rigid moral and behavior norms often work to suppress and suffocate this component of our existence. Although the book was divisive when it was first published, it is now recognized as a significant contribution to the study of human sexuality and the history of sexual liberation.
Sjálfsævisaga rithöfundarins og leikarans Frank Harris (1855 - 1931) kom út í íslenskri þýðingu Baldurs Hólmgeirssonar árið 1958. Harris rekur ævi sína og örlög, allt frá barnæsku til kvennafars á fullorðinsárum. Ævisaga hans hefst á fleygu orðunum: „Minnið er móðir listagyðjanna og sönn fyrirmynd listamannsins." Eftir þeirri speki er sjálfsævisaga Harris rituð. Hann segir frá kynnum sínum af konum í miklum smáatriðum og teiknaði myndir til sem voru innblásnar af ævintýrum hans. Frásögnin og teikningarnar sem þeim fylgdu vakti mikinn usla á sínum tíma og var bókin bönnuð í áratugi í Bandaríkjunum og Bretlandi. Þrátt fyrir það varð Ævi mín og ástir metsölubók, hún þykir enn vera merkilegt erótískt verk og seldist dýrum dómum í Frakklandi þar sem hún var ekki bönnuð. „Ævi mín og ástir" kynnir lesanda einnig vel fyrir samtíma höfundarins, við sögu koma fjölmargar þekktar persónur sem Harris kynntist á sinni ævi. Þar má nefna: Oscar Wild, Heinrich Heine, George Meredith og fleiri samtímamenn Harris. Frank Harris (1855 - 1931) fæddist 14. Febrúar 1855 í Galway á Írlandi. Hann kom víða við á viðburðaríkri ævi sinni. Hann flutti til Bandaríkjanna á fullorðinsárum til að læra lögfræði en síðar lagði hann leið sína aftur til Evrópu og settist að í London. Honum var margt til lista lagt. Frank Harris var þekktur rithöfundur, ritstjóri og blaðamaður. Hann hóf feril sinn sem ritstjóri ýmissa dagblaða og tímarita, þar á meðal Fortnightly Review og Saturday Review.Frank Harris skrifaði nokkrar skáldsögur og einnig ritaði hann ævisögu Oscar Wilde, sem þótti tímamótaverk. Harris er þó þekktastur fyrir sjálfsævisöguleg verk sín, þar á meðal „Ævi mín og ástir". Ritstíll hans var umdeildur á sínum tíma og hann uppskar misjafnar móttökur á verkum sínum. Harris var margslungin persóna og ef af orðspori hans má dæma var hann heillandi og erfiður í senn. Þrátt fyrir þetta var hann mjög virtur í bókmenntaheiminum þar til hann lést 26. ágúst 1931. Verk hans höfða til þeirra sem hafa áhuga á bókmenntasögunni og litríkum reynslusögum.
