Essays on politics, power, and culture from one of America's most eminent critics
Essays from across the storied career of 'critic's critic' George Scialabba. Forthright yet charitable, Scialabba gleans his greatest insights from those he disagrees with and is a model for the practice of independent criticism.
Never has a writer of such enviable talents displayed such evident and unpretentious pleasure in good prose.
Scialabba is as lively as ever...Only a Voice is filled with provocative arguments that make the reader want to argue right back.
