Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Journalist Michael Kinsley has described Michael Dirda as the best-read person in America, then added but he doesn't rub it in. Michael M. Thomas called him, in the New York Observer, the best book critic in America. Nevertheless, no one named Michael was involved when Dirda was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for his reviews in the Washington Post or when his recent book, On Conan Doyle, picked up an Edgar award from the Mystery Writers of America. Dirda's latest volume collects fifty of his poignant and puissant essays about the literary life.
