Stunning collection of Said's essays that are both thought-provoking and a genuine delight to read. This is a wonderful introduction to Said and a perfect overview of his career.

Highly recommended.

A beautiful collection of Said's essays, masterfully written and quite thought-provoking. His interests and poignant views on disparate topics ranging from music to politics is worth gold to any reader.

My Rating - 5/5

Great collection of essays by Edward Said. For the casual reader, unfamiliar with his works, this is a good book to become familiar with the wide ranging topics of concern for Said.
