Description
You might not have heard of Jessie Thorpe or read any of her reviews during 2002 and 2003. But during her time at United Press International, she quickly gained a loyal following for her breezy but insightful critiques of books, films and occasional social events. One newspaper even created a special design for her featured reviews. It was fitting. Using her lifetime love and study of literature and nonfiction, Jessie Thorpe had developed the keenest of eyes for spotting new and emerging talents -- and for poking well-deserved holes into substandard works by famous authors and personalities. Her book reviews consistently presented unique perspectives and insights, and her thoughtful essays matched the observational prowess of much more widely known commentators. They remain trenchant and persuasive despite the passage of time. So, if you love literature, if you appreciate a clear thinker, please sample the small wonders presented here.
