The thirty-five pieces that Alex Andriesse has gathered here—none previously featured in volumes of Hardwick’s work—make it clear that her powers extended far beyond literary criticism, encompassing a vast range of subjects, from New York City to Faye Dunaway, from Wagner’s \u003ci\u003eParsifal \u003c\/i\u003eto Leonardo da Vinci’s inventions, and from the pleasures of summertime to grits soufflé. In these often surprising, always well-wrought essays, we see Hardwick’s passion for people and places, her politics, her thoughts on feminism, and her ability, especially from the 1970s on, to write well about seemingly anything.","brand":"Hardwick, Elizabeth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52337150525714,"sku":"9781681376233","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/9238\/5846\/files\/17551393482786_d6583dac-4e0e-47b1-a9b1-c603883ba519.jpg?v=1780434412","url":"https:\/\/hbswarehousesale.com\/products\/uncollected-essays-of-elizabeth-hardwick-paperback","provider":"Harvard Book Store Warehouse Sale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
