The Essays In The Volume Are By Very Established As Well As Up-Coming Scholars And The Readers Will Realise The Substantial Values Of The Insights That The Pieces Contain. Most Anthologies Published Carry A Great Load Of Articles On Fiction Writers Who Often Are Already Familiar And Researched. This Anthology Strikes A Balance Between Poetry And Fiction. It Focuses Upon Relatively Unknown Poets Whose Poetry Merits Serious Consideration For Reason Either Of Stylistic Parameters Or Of Thematological Nemesis. Essays On Poetry Carry Comparative, Historical And Formalistic Approaches In Relation To Distinguished Poets Like Rabindranath Tagore, Nissim Ezekiel And Vikram Seth. The Editor S Interview With Charu Sheel Singh Is Added To Bring Variety And Focus Of Perspective To What A Creative Writer Feels About Literature In Question.

This collection of the best essays written in the English language during the past one hundred years includes many that have become landmarks defining their time: Norman Mailer's The White Negro, Tom Wolfe's These Radical Chic Evenings, James Baldwin's Notes of a Native Son, and Gore Vidal's The Holy Family. Others are in a lighter vein, like James Thurber's lampoon of Salvador Dali's Secret Life or Max Beerbohm's reflections on Laughter. There are Philip Roth on baseball and A. P. Herbert on bathrooms; Mary McCarthy's My Confession, on her Communist sympathies; and F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Crack-up. Each reader will have his or her own favorites: Eudora Welty capturing the precise moment at which she grew up, or Arthur Koestler debunking the effects of magic mushrooms. And each essay has stood the test of time, like Hannah Arendt's The Concentration Camps, Edmund Wilson's now classic The Wound and the Bow, and Paul Fussell on World War II.

George Orwell set out ‘to make political writing into an art’, and to a wide extent this aim shaped the future of English literature – his descriptions of authoritarian regimes helped to form a new vocabulary that is fundamental to understanding totalitarianism. While 1984 and Animal Farm are amongst the most popular classic novels in the English language, this new series of Orwell’s essays seeks to bring a wider selection of his writing on politics and literature to a new readership. In Why I Write, the first in the Orwell’s Essays series, Orwell describes his journey to becoming a writer, and his movement from writing poems to short stories to the essays, fiction and non-fiction we remember him for. He also discusses what he sees as the ‘four great motives for writing’ – ‘sheer egoism’, ‘aesthetic enthusiasm’, ‘historical impulse’ and ‘political purpose’ – and considers the importance of keeping these in balance. Why I Write is a unique opportunity to look into Orwell’s mind, and it grants the reader an entirely different vantage point from which to consider the rest of the great writer’s oeuvre.
