| 520 | _a Audacious and original ... Steiner discusses, in seven brave, unflinching, and personal essays, books that he "had hoped to write." (SirReadaLot.org) REVIEW: Steiner at his most complex: irascible and passionate, erudite and self-absorbed, determined to engage the most difficult cultural problems. (The New York Times Book Review, Ben Marcus) REVIEW: This spicily honest little book exposes more of the man than ever before. (Guardian, Blake Morrison) REVIEW: By the time you finish this book, it is obvious that Steiner remains a beacon of humane rationalism. (Metrotimes, Brian Sholis) REVIEW: George Steiner's splendid My Unwritten Books suggests we need a pro-life movement in the publishing world--now. (The Philadelphia Inquirer, Carlin Romano) REVIEW: A tongue-in-cheek collection of prefaces to a Borgesian bookshelf of nonexistent texts. (The Jerusalem Report, Matt Nesvisky) REVIEW: One of the best and most fascinating books I have had the pleasure to read in a very long time. (Bookforum, Nick Tosches) REVIEW: The record of emotional maturity, a human wisdom that may have been slowed by intellectual effort. (Rain Taxi, W.C. Bamberger). | ||
