Read in February, 2009

Books of essays are tough to begin with, easily disjointed, but this suffers from being a compendium of work written for other purposes. That said, Snyder is still Snyder, with valuable insight and perspective. I did get a sense for his life and the evolution of his thinking with this book, and it's worthwhile reading. But not how I would choose to introduce someone to his work.
