About This Item
Pan, 1988. Standard. Paperback. Good. Outline:- For Love and Money is the `part case history, part memoir` of a modern man of letters: a selection of Jonathan Raban`s very best essays, reportage, travel writings and literary criticism, linked with a narrative thread that bravely attempts the agonizing and revelatory question `Why do you write?` `His writing articulates a style of humane and witty conversation: he excels at the revealing anecdote, the smart phrase, the art of happy extravagance. And by being perhaps the only critic of calibre who is not an egomaniac, his judgements emerge as the elegant ponderosities of an intelligent reader - and not from a critic at all` Roger Lewis, Punch `You see with pleasure how reading has shaped without subduing his style. Raban is never guilty of supposing that he can use lower writing powers because what he`s doing is only journalism. The splices are excellent. Raban is interesting everywhere` Frank Kermode, London Review of Books `A marvellously absorbing anthology which leaves you eager for Raban`s next haul of sightings and soundings` Times Literary Supplement `A marvellous writer. On books and travel he is spellbinding` Sunday Times-> the publisher of this PAPERBACK book is Pan The date of this copy is 1988 booksalvation have grade it as Good and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Series.
