|  | The Western Canon by Harold Bloom
The debate goes on. Bloom attempts to salvage what's left of the literary canon with this tome of tradition. In the fight against political correctness and ideological literary study on campus, the author asserts that who reads must choose, since there is literally not enough time to read everything, even if one does nothing but read...Do I again go in search of lost time with Marcel Proust, or am I to attempt yet another rereading of Alice Walker's stirring denunciation of all males...? In addition to essays that examine Dante to Dostoevksy, Dickinson to Dickens, there's a list of Bloom's favorites, including Cervantes, George Eliot, Borges, and Joseph Mitchell. AUTHOR: Harold Bloom
