Of time immemorial: the essays of E.B. White
Notes on Our Times, 23 essays that White wrote between 1937 and 1952, are uncannily timely. The subjects that White wrote about then both resonate and echo now-air travel... censorship... home.... income taxes. The age of the atom...the need to be heard. The dream of the American male...remembrance of things past.
As he delves into our desires and follies and everlasting hopes, White finds the universal taproot that feeds successive generations. These are essays whose time has come again-or perhaps, like E.B. White, never left. Only from Levenger.
