A Plea For Eros

If you like Siri Hustvedt's style of writing, the way she uses her knowledge on art, psycho analysis, philosophy etc in her writing, you will like her essays where she expresses these thoughts not through her characters but through her own voice.For many it may sound a bit snobbish, too high brow, too New York-superior? etc..however the more you read you will get into her flow her life.It is because first of all, her writing is beautiful, the way she uses chooses her words is so precise, and that in itself makes one really appreciate her writing. Also the way she elaborates the events in her life, you end up empathizing with her...She has the talent to use words to tell you a free flowing story which constantly stimulate and provoke new thoughts as well as emotions.

Left with a favourable impression of Siri Hustvedt's illuminating thinking. Her capacity to combine both her objective thinking and knowledge with her subjective reactions.

Tedious and unappealing having read the first 3 stories and unsure if will finish it most probably not. It's a short stories collection book starting from late '90.
