Description

Sharply Critical is a collection of essays and reviews by novelist and short story writer Ellis Sharp. In this wide-ranging work, Sharp analyses the work of various authors, including Ian McEwan, Paul Celan, and David Lean.

The book covers a range of topics, from the hidden meanings in Jane Eyre to the reputations of Angela Carter and Douglas Haig. Sharp also scrutinises the response to the invasion of Iraq in Ian McEwan's novel Saturday, as well as attitudes towards Israel exemplified by critical responses to Aharon Appelfeld and Amos Oz.

Sharp's unique perspective brings together a diverse range of subjects, including Rimbaud, Robert Mitchum, and Ann Quin's final novel Trypticks. With his distinctive voice, Sharp offers insightful analysis that is both engaging and thought-provoking.
