Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Art and Craft of Letters: Satire Of all literary adventurers there is none who more appeals to my temper or lays a larger call upon my sympathy than the satirist, for he is a poet or a soul well-born who has been parlously out of luck. There are men, like Goethe, whose luck is so stupendous as to put them out of the running for the readers comradeship. I have ever been a reader, often devout and whole-hearted, but with the lucky men I can never stay long, and to some, since my boyish prostration, I have never turned again. There are too many stormy places and dark ways in human life upon which their imagination has never cast its light. Shakespeare never had this overwhelming luck; he had always to wrestle with the powers of darkness for his imagination. And he won, and took flight with as many passengers as cared to go with him.
