ISBN: 9780374515072 / Angielski / Miękka / 1979 / 580 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Edmund Wilson's book is a record of this great scholarly find. Wilson was a prolific literary critic and social commentator, not an...

From the Uncollected Edmund Wilson
ISBN: 9780821411278 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Many of Wilson's writings have been anthologized. But there is another body of work over fifty fine essays on aspects of contemporary literature and ideas that have been scattered in a variety of magazines, including "The New Yorker," "The New Republic," "Vanity Fair," and "The Nation."
