On Empson (Writers on Writers) by Michael Wood
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 332 KB
Overview: From one of today’s most distinguished critics, a beautifully written exploration of one of the twentieth century’s most important literary critics
Are literary critics writers? As Michael Wood says, "Not all critics are writers―perhaps most of them are not―and some of them are better when they don’t try to be." The British critic and poet William Empson (1906–84), one of the most important and influential critics of the twentieth century, was an exception―a critic who was not only a writer but also a great one. In this brief book, Wood, himself one of the most gifted writers among contemporary critics, explores Empson as a writer, a distinguished poet whose criticism is a brilliant literary performance―and proof that the act of reading can be an unforgettable adventure.
