Book Description
Excerpt from A Clerk of Oxenford: Essays on Literature and Life I hope, therefore, that it will be considered on its own merits as a book of essays, and not as a mere transcription of radio talks. Those who have read People, Places, and Books will observe that the range of this collection is considerably wider, and that it goes more deeply into analysis of literary method and substance. Letters from numerous correspondents have convinced me that there is a strong demand in the United States for this type of aesthetic discussion and criticism. I feel sure they are right: hence this book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
