Product Description
First published in 1958 ( this is the UK edition) - Conrad Aiken's book stands the test of time. His critiques will be an invaluable aid to anyone who wants to gain an understanding of many of the world's greatest writers and poets. And his book is unique in several ways: the first 100 pages (25%) of the book contains a group of Aiken's essays on literature and criticism; then there are the writers and poets he covers, in alphabetical order (even including some unsparing critiques he did on his own work); and lastly, a 14-page checklist of Aiken's critical writings, which serves as a handy guide for those who wish to do further research about Conrad's work. Mr. Aiken is a fascinating individual, and deserves more study than he has received in the last half century.
Covers the period 1916-1958.
