PositiveLibrary JournalLongtime New Yorker art critic Schjeldahl (formerly, Village Voice) covers a fruitful and entertaining 30 years of art affairs ... Throughout all this winning variety, the author’s witty insightfulness resurfaces to charm readers with engaging turns of phrase, plain assertions, and autobiographical glosses. It’s all disarmingly enthusiastic and unswaggering ... A compendium of piquant art prose from a happy, hungry omnivore, and great for aesthetes of all kinds.
