Things I Don't Want to Know: A Response to George Orwell's Why I Write

Autor Deborah Levy
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 2013
'Perhaps when Orwell described sheer egoism as a necessary quality for a writer, he was not thinking about the sheer egoism of a female writer. Even the most arrogant female writer has to work over time to build an ego that is robust enough to get her through January, never mind all the way to December.' Deborah Levy

Recenzii

An up-to-date version of 'A Room of One's Own' . . . I suspect it will be quoted for many years to come
Superb sharpness and originality of imagination. It is feminist and political while being an inspiring work of writing . . . She writes on the high wire, unfalteringly
Levy's strength is her originality of thought and expression
An exciting writer, sharp and shocking as the knives her characters wield
One of the few contemporary British writers comfortable on a world stage
A writer whose anger and confusion in the face of the world transform into poetic flights of fancy . . . which always feel marvellously right
