Review:
'Enthusiasm and intelligence: these are the essential qualities of the critic. Calvino, himself a novelist of rare quality, possessed both generously. This is a book to read for itself, and also because it will send you back to other books to read, either again in a new way, or for the first time... Superb' Daily Telegraph 'This volume itself is a classic book at bedtime, a seductive invitation to forgotten opportunities or rereading' The Times
Book Description:
--'One of the most inspiring justifications of great literature I've ever come upon' Sunday Telegraph--'This volume itself is a classic book at bedtime, a seductive invitation to forgotten opportunities or rereading' The Times
