Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 470 pages. Published in 2003. Retrospective collection of essays. One of Frank Kermode's finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. Presents Frank Kermode's "Pieces of My Mind: Essays And Criticism 1958-2002". Literary and cultural criticism by a Master Critic, writing over a forty-five year period. He writes about a dazzling variety of subjects: Art, dance, music, OTHER literary critics and commentators, important contemporary novelists and poets as well as William Shakespeare, his intellectual lodestar. He ranges across this breadth of interests (and commitments) by breaking otherwise insuperable barriers through his transcendent, prehensile reach. This is practical criticism as aesthetic hedonism, the most misunderstood, most widely attacked - by political correctness, the contemporary version of conformism and censorship - and most valuable philosophical approach to contemporary life. "Should be of keen interest to those interested in post-war intellectual life. For as much as these essays exemplify the tension, the patience, and the insight of a great critic, in their defense of proportion and clarity, they are also works of ethical importance" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Frank Kermode collectors. This title is a great collection. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) still available online and is in fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, the Softcover Edition, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. One of the greatest critics of the 20th century and our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER FRANK KERMODE TITLE IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0809076012. no. …
