Something said

by Gilbert Sorrentino

"For over the decades, Gilbert Sorrentino has produced brilliant, penetrating essays and reviews, each one an uncompromising statement of what is good - and what is not - in literature and culture. Something Said collects in a single volume these definitive readings of such major twentieth-century innovators as William Carlos Williams, William Gaddis, Italo Calvino, John Hawkes, and Robert Creeley, along with critical writings on film, pop culture, and visual art.". "This new expanded edition includes twenty-five pieces written since the publication of the first edition in 1984."--BOOK JACKET.
