Pleasing Myself by Frank Kermode
Frank Kermode has often said that much of his best work has been done at shorter length, in the essays he has written on a very wide range of subjects for literary journals of one kind or another. This volume brings together a selection of these pieces that have been written since the 1990s, on topics as diverse as Donne, Yeats, Howard Hodgkin, gnosticism, the sea and money, as well as futher thoughts on Shakespeare.
Sir Frank Kermode is the first literary critic to be knighted since Empson and is widely acknowledged as the head of the profession in this country. His previous books include A SENSE OF AN ENDING, his autobiography, NOT ENTITLED and the best-selling SHAKESPEARE'S LANGUAGE.
