Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. 33, [1]5 pages. Michael Dirda book list. Index. DJ has minor wear and soiling. Slight corner bumping. Signed by the author on the title page. The memoirs of a Pulitzer Prize-winning literary journalist and critic discusses his childhood and education in small-tow…n Ohio, his colorful family and friends, and his voracious appetite for reading. Michael Dirda (born 1948) is a book critic for the Washington Post. He has been a Fulbright Fellow and won a Pulitzer Prize in 1993. Having studied at Oberlin College for his undergraduate degree in 1970, Dirda took an M.A. in 1974 and Ph.D. in 1977 from Cornell University in comparative literature. In 1978 Dirda started writing for the Washington Post; in 1993 he won the Pulitzer Prize for his criticism. Currently, he is a book columnist for the Post. Derived from a Kirkus review: The Washington Post Book World's Pulitzer-winning book critic recalls in evocative prose his youth in Ohio. Dirda grew up in the home of a bored and bitter steelworker who could not understand why his son's nose was permanently parked in a book. Still, the elder Dirda emerges as a positive force in this marvelous memoir, nowhere more poignantly than when he advised his son, at the time feeling overmatched at Oberlin, that he just needed to work harder. Michael did, and graduated with highest honors in English. The story of the author's life is an account of the myriad books he read, of the social consequences exacted by his personality, of the adults who influenced him, of the young men he befriended, of the young women he lusted after and pursued, at times clownishly. Virtually every page is crowded with allusions to texts, accounts of how specific writers influenced him, and quotations. As a boy he favored adventure stories; Bomba and Tarzan were a couple of jungle favorites. In junior high he met a charismatic teacher who challenged him with books that few young adolescents would today attempt, e.g., Crime and Punishment. He read the way starving omnivores eat, from Shakespeare to Dale Carnegie, from Thoreau to Lloyd C. Douglas, from Clifton Fadiman to Ayn Rand. A high-school French teacher fed him other books like bon-bons and took him and some others on an 8,000-mile car trip one summer. With puberty came clumsiness and sexual silliness, then it was off to nearby Oberlin, where he learned about music and art and hard work. An effervescent yet self-effacing tale of a youngster who viewed a library as an all-you-can-eat buffetâ"and greedily gorged. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Chester Simpson (author photograph) (illustrator).

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. A complete run of one of the most important counter-culture reviews in American literary history. The reputation of the Evergreen Review grows ever more golden as time passes. Celebrated for its design, radical political content, and literary, intellectual excellence. First four iss…ues signed by the editor and various contributors: issue no. 1 signed by Barney Rosset; no. 2, which introducted the Beat Movement to the nation while Howl was still in the midst of its obscenity trial, is signed by Rosset plus Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Gary Snyder, Michael McClure, and Allen Ginsberg; no. 3 is signed by both Rosset and Gary Snyder; no. 4 signed by Rosset and Robin Blaser. A remarkable Beat and American counter-culture high spot which rarely hits the market as a complete set, rarer still in this condition, and unheard of signed by Rosset and the key contributors. All numbered volumes very good or better; the Last Tango in Paris supplement is in good condition. Signed by Author(s).
