mirumir's review against another edition

"But remember that 'simplicity' is buncombe. No major writer is simple. The Saturday Evening Post is simple. Journalese is simple. Upton Lewis is simple. Mom is simple. Digests are simple. Damnation is simple. But Tolstoys and Melvilles are not simple."
romanoirs's review against another edition
Didn't think it was possible to find Nabokov even more insufferable than I already do but this collection proved me wrong.

stefanieh's review against another edition
4.0
I started reading this a long time ago and had plans to read or re-read each book he lectures on along with the lecture. It began well but then the book sat for um years. So I decided to just finish reading the lectures and not worry about the books. It would have been amazing to be in his class. He has a great sense of humor and he really brings a great perspective on how to read closely.

Bilo je zanimljivo čitati kako neko smatra Dostojevskog lošim piscem (do sada se nisam susrela sa tim). KOliko je ljubavi prema Tolstoju.
