Childhood Regained: The Art of the Storyteller (Columbia Introductions to Twentieth-Century American Poetry)
by Fernando Savater
On This Page
Description
This is a collection of chapters, each on a favorite book or author of Savater's, and each book or author is an example of an archetype of literature. Savater does not write academic analysis, but as someone who reads and loves literature. He recalls the enthusiasm of a child reading a good story for the first time, and he recalls the stories he has re-read and remembered.Tags
