What's Bred in the Bone by Robertson Davies is my favourite novel. Bred in the Bone is both a traditional novel and contemporary - A tale told traditionally but by an author with contemporary social and psychological insight and delightful wit. What's Bred in the Bone is the second novel in the Canadian writer Robertson Davies' Cornish Trilogy. Whats Bred In the Bone Paperback – December 8, 1988 by Robertson Davies (Author) When we look closer, we find that Francis Cornish’s life was carefully crafted and destined to make an impact on the world, long after his death. It is the second in the otherwise unremarkable Cornish trilogy and details the life of the second Francis Cornish from birth to death, including a confusing religious upbringing by everyone but his parents in a rural Ontario town, his education from 'Spook' to Oxford, his apprenticeship in art fraud to cheat the Nazis and his secret life … Robertson Davies (1913-1995) was an internationally acclaimed author, actor, publisher, and, finally, professor at the University of Toronto. The Cornish Trilogy: The Rebel Angels, What's Bred in the Bone, and The Lyre of Orpheus by Robertson Davies (July 01,1991) The author of twelve novels and several volumes of essays and plays, he was the first Canadian to be inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Letters. What’s Bred in the Bone is a variation on that theme. Little did anyone know what a portrait of greatness could look like. Hence the strange title, from an old proverb: "What's bred in the bone will not out of the flesh" -- the implication being that you cannot understand a person until you know his formation. Six years earlier, Sir Anthony Blunt, Britain's leading art historian (and briefly one of my own professors), had been exposed as a Soviet spy. Robertson Davies published this middle volume of his "Cornish Trilogy" in 1985.

Robertson Davies (1913 - 1995) was an internationally acclaimed author, actor, publisher, and, finally, professor at the University of Toronto. It is the life story of Francis or Frank Cornish, whose death and will were the starting point for the first novel, The Rebel Angels. The hero, is at the surface, simply an old art collector and miser.
