Description

Kevin Power's essays and reviews offer a unique perspective on the world of art and literature. As a seasoned critic with over 350 books reviewed since 2008, Power shares his insights on what makes good art 'good'. He explores the relationship between criticism and art, arguing that criticism is an art form in its own right. Through his writing, Power reflects on his journey as a critic and the authors he has encountered. His pieces range from reviews of notable figures like Susan Sontag to discussions on apocalyptic politics and literary theory. This collection represents a decade's worth of thinking about books and the author's attempts to honour art and the world. In The Written World, Power offers a thoughtful exploration of criticism and its place in the literary landscape.
