recommends it for:
anyone who thinks there's nothing left to read.
That's a literal title. I had heard of a few of Perrin's authors or titles (Robert Graves, Joseph Mitchell, Guard of Honor, A Fine and Private Place) and now, solely on the his enticing, enchanting essays, I want to read them all. And even if Perrin is wrong (which I doubt) and the books' obscurity deserved, I shall have delighted in Perrin's essays themselves, which are as masterful as the books they tout.

Wonderful set of reviews of Perrin's favorite not-quite-classics, some of which I'd actually read myself. A great reference for finding my next good read.
