Review # 2 was written on 2021-03-16 00:00:00 VIRGILIO GUZMAN-GORDIAN After reading Larkin's All What Jazz, Clive James wished he'd bought ten copies instead of one. After reading Reliable Essays, I wished I'd bought fifty. I've re-read this more often than any essay collection by another writer, and I own collections by Burgess, Orwell and John Carey. In a just world, James's essay 'Little Malcolm and His Struggle Against the Masses' would knock E.B. White's 'Once More to the Lake' out of the box as the model for every composition class. I wish more essays had been included - gems such as 'Brezhnev: A State of Boredom', and 'A Blizzard of Tiny Kisses.' Along with Unreliable Memoirs, these essays represent the best of James's prose. Make these your first port of call, and start without delay. |
