Cultural Amnesia
Excellent, perceptive series of comments and evaluations about writers, artiists, and thinkers in much of the 20th century at an unbeatable price.

Great book
This book covers a lot of important writers, artists and there work (and gives you some new ideas how to interprete the world).
But be warned. It is not a book for one time reading. You need patience, time and sometimes a dictionary.
