A review by cbking
Great Books: My Adventures with Homer, Rousseau, Woolf, and Other Indestructible Writers of the Western World by David Denby

Did not finish book.

I am embarrassed to say that I could not get through more than 50 pages of this book. I was really intrigued by the premise, but it just didn't do it for me. In addition, I started to feel guilty that I hadn't read a number of the source texts -- perhaps if I were more familiar with the texts, Denby's analysis would be more rewarding.
