Edmund Wilson
Literary Essays and Reviews of the 1930s and 40s
The Triple Thinkers • The Wound and the Bow • Classic and Commercials • uncollected reviews
"Since the whole project was his idea, it is fitting that Edmund Wilson now finds himself among The Library of America's roster of canonical authors. Wilson, our last great 'man of letters,' often behaved as though he were personally responsible for lifting the standards of American literary life to European levels."
