Critical essays by the Nobel Prize winner on writers from Solzhenitsyn to Sartre.
 
Poet and man of letters Octavio Paz was also a brilliant reader of other writers, and this book selects his best critical essays from over three decades. In the sixteen pieces collected here, Paz discusses a wide range of poets and writers, both American and international, from Robert Frost and Walt Whitman to William Carlos Williams; from Fyodor Dostoevsky to Luis Buñuel to Alexander Solzhenitsyn; and from Charles Baudelaire to Jean-Paul Sartre, André Breton, and Henri Michaux.
 
“Paz writes with winning informality, honoring the externals of life, its tone, it casual encounters, mocking the pomp with which many intellectuals handle ideas.” —The Washington Post Book World
