The Din in the Head: Essays

This is a collection of essays by an author I had only a faint knowledge of, but one I will keep a future eye on. Her "takes" on Saul Bellow, Susan Sontag, Henry James--to name a few--are both interesting and informative, but this is only to name a few of the writers she evaluates through a viewpoint that is traditional, Jewish and conservative, hence her disdain of "identity" modes of literary criticism. (See her essay on Lionel Trilling, for example.) A read "page turner" of a literary sort.
