As of This Writing: The Essential Essays, 1968-2002
Extremely informative - this guy knows a TON of stuff, and writes very clearly, intelligently, and enjoyably about them all. I learned a lot and found the points of view stimulating and thought-provoking. His pieces on Mark Twain are some of the best I've read anywhere. Really an astounding range and depth of insight.
