|  | Selected Essays of Lionel Trilling by Leon Wieseltier, Lionel Trilling
A literary and critical giant during his life, Lionel Trilling slid somewhat out of favor after his death, when literary criticism became hostile to Trilling's unclassifiable combination of a tight focus on the texts at hand with a broad view of culture, psychology, and politics. This book brings some of his best work back into print for the first time since his death, and contains essays on Austen, Twain, Hemingway, Wordsworth, Keats, Eliot, and Frost. It also includes Art and Neurosis and the preface to Trilling's revered book, THE LIBERAL IMAGINATION. AUTHOR: Leon Wieseltier, Lionel Trilling
