I read most of these essays as they came out in La Nouvelle Revue Francaise and reading them again I am struck once more by their brilliance simply as literary criticism, by their indefatigable focus on the question of the nature of writing, and by the wide range of modern authors they discuss from Blanchot's special perspective."--J. Hillis Miller, University of California, Irvine |
