Title: A masterful writer at work.
Product review: This is a great book by one of America's great, overlooked writers. Thank Heavens Library of America understands his worth.I read Let Us Now Praise Famous Men when I was a teenager, and it struck me then as something very unique, powerful, and transcendently beautiful. It still does. When reading it again, in my 54th year, it reads almost like a long, gorgeous fever dream; as if Agee had reached some stratosphere of writing few artist ever do. I will always consider this work one of the greatest expressions of humanity ever written - a snapshot of a life, a people, and a time that should go in the space capsule.
