Reviews
"Former New York Times book critic Kakutani delivers an ebullient celebration of books and reading. She comes up with an eclectic list of titles that have shaped her life, including classics (Shakespeare, Frankenstein , Moby-Dick ), biography and memoir . . . and contemporary fiction (Zadie Smith's White Teeth , Donna Tartt's The Goldfinch , Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's Americanah ). Each selection is accompanied by a brief, elegant essay explaining her connection to the work. . . . Kakutani's recommendations and her 'sense of the shared joys and losses of human experience' are revelations." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Synopsis
Pulitzer Prize-winning literary critic Michiko Kakutani shares 100 personal, thought-provoking essays about books that have mattered to her and that help illuminate the world we live in today--with beautiful illustrations throughout. "A book tailormade for bibliophiles."--Oprah Winfrey "An ebullient celebration of books and reading."-- Publishers Weekly (starred review) In the introduction to her new collection of essays, Ex Libris 100+ Books to Read and Reread , Michiko Kakutani writes: "In a world riven by political and social divisions, literature can connect people across time zones and zip codes, across cultures and religions, national boundaries and historical eras. It can give us an understanding of lives very different from our own, and a sense of the shared joys and losses of human experience." Readers will discover novels and memoirs by some of the most gifted writers working today; favorite classics worth reading or rereading; and nonfiction works, both old and new, that illuminate our social and political landscape and some of today's most pressing issues, from climate change to medicine to the consequences of digital innovation. There are essential works in American history ( The Federalist Papers , The Writings and Speeches of Martin Luther King, Jr. ); books that address timely cultural dynamics (Elizabeth Kolbert's The Sixth Extinction , Daniel J. Boorstin's The Image , Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale ); classics of children's literature (the Harry Potter novels, Where the Wild Things Are ); and novels by acclaimed contemporary writers like Don DeLillo, William Gibson, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, and Ian McEwan. With richly detailed illustrations by lettering artist Dana Tanamachi that evoke vintage bookplates, Ex Libris is an impassioned reminder of why reading matters more than ever., Pulitzer Prize-winning literary critic Michiko Kakutani shares 100 personal, thought-provoking essays about books that have mattered to her and that help illuminate the world we live in today--with beautiful illustrations throughout.

- g***a (78)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoI received a different version of the item that was advertised - but am extremely happy to report that Clarissa responded quickly and, once it was confirmed, issued a refund without delay. I've ordered from this vendor in the past: wonderful high quality books, & have always enjoyed quick replies with helpful information, great prices and fast shipping. Mistakes happen. Rock solid customer service is RARE. Thank you, Clarissa for handling the discrepancy so well. I'll def buy from you again!Flor y Canto; Tercera Edición Words and Music- 9781579921583, hardcover, Various (N° 388314820808)
- s***t (2241)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificato🎈🎈🧨🧨🎈🎈 This seller is all about service and customer satisfaction!! I ordered a book, received a book (very fast shipping), but it was not the title I ordered (same subject matter). I sent a message explaining what happened, received very quick response that was apologetic and requesting some additional info about the book I received. Sent that info and again very quick response. The book I wanted was not in stock, a full refund was issued, and I was allowed to keep the book I received!!😀
- 5***5 (307)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoUnfortunately I never received books, but it wasn’t seller’s fault. Tracking info proved items were honestly mailed out on time, so either postal service lost/mis-delivered package or it was stolen from my building mailroom. Whatever the case, seller gave me a full refund. I really appreciate them making it right & although I bought the books I wanted elsewhere, this seller is aboveboard & can be trusted & I’d buy from them again.
